  • Collecting South African Art in the 1930S: the Role of Martin Du Toit
    Historia 53,1, Mei/May 2008, pp 162-196 Collecting South African Art in the 1930s: The Role of Martin du Toit ∗ Jeanne van Eeden Introduction This article indicates the role Professor Marthinus (Martin) Lourens du Toit (1897-1938) played as a patron of South African visual art in the 1930s. During the time that he was head of the Department of Afrikaans Art and Culture at the University of Pretoria between 1931 and 1938, Martin du Toit (Figure 1) initiated a series of art exhibitions in the Macfadyen Hall to display the work of contemporary, often contentious artists. The university wished to support artists and provided this exhibition space free of charge. As a token of appreciation, many artists donated an artwork at the end of the exhibition.1 Du Toit used these exhibitions as a starting point in building up a representative collection of South African art, which he augmented with donations from artists and art collectors. This article suggests that Martin du Toit and the Department of Afrikaans Art and Culture fulfilled an important role by attempting to instil an appreciation for art in Pretoria through regular exhibitions and by laying the foundations for an institutional art collection. This form of academic patronage of South African artists seems to have been rare in the 1930s, and took place during a decisive period regarding the politicised debates concerning ethnicity, modernism, nationalism, and national art, and their relation to cultural identity and artistic expression. In this article, I refer to relevant aspects of these issues and relate them to the discourse of art collecting in the 1930s where possible,2 but do not engage in a discussion of the artworks as such.

  • A Century of South African Art from the Sanlam Art Collection 1918 – 2018
    A Century of South African Art from the Sanlam Art Collection 1918 – 2018 “Great nations write their autobiographies in the three manuscripts: the book of their deeds, the book of their words and the book of their art. Not one of these books can be understood unless we read the two others, but of the three the only trustworthy one is the last.” - John Ruskin (1819 – 1900) Foreword The Sanlam Art Collection has been part of the Sanlam Group for more than half of its existence. Founded in 1965 the collection holds more than 2000 items associated with more than 500 South African artists whose works cover more than a century. Sanlam actively shares its collection with all South Africans in exhibitions at the Sanlam Art Gallery in Bellville and the Sanlam Art Lounge in Sandton and in regular collaboration with public museums and private collections on themed exhibitions. This provides the public with unique opportunities to view works which would not normally be easily accessible and to gain a deeper understanding of the value and meaning of art in a broader social and art historical context. Art provides us with mechanisms to negotiate our differences and to develop idiosyncratic as well as shared visions of the past and the future. Viewed as a barometer of change, art plays a crucial role in the realisation of a democratic and free South Africa. By collecting art and displaying it wherever we can Sanlam, besides being a major role player in the economic growth of South Africa, contributes to the mental sustenance that makes this a truly unique country and nation.

It is not a place where we recycle history’s waste. It is first and foremost an epistemic space.” Deviant Practice: Achille Mbembe An Introduction I have turned to this quote by political theorist Achille Mbembe a number of times recently.1 In his concise proclamation he asks that museums consider what constitutes the ‘waste’ of history – to stop reproducing what should have been called into question long ago. In a Western art museum like the Van Abbemuseum, formed within the matrix of modernism and colonial- Nick Aikens ism, understanding, naming and challenging ‘history’s waste’ is a necessary and ongoing task. Mbembe’s call is also an invitation to stop regurgitating patterns and processes under different guises. Within a cultural field that often feels hard-wired to duplicate and reconsti- tute, Mbembe is asking those museums to think reflex- ively about what they put into the world and how, and demands that we claim the museum as an ‘epistemic place’ – a place of knowledge and for knowledge.
