These buildings are an important indication of our level of civilisation and a convincing proof for a judgmental critical world - that for more than 300 years a structured and proper Western civilisation has flourished and exist here at the southern point of Africa. The visible tracks of our cultural heritage are our historic buildings…they are undoubtedly the deeds to the land we love and which God in his mercy gave to us. 1 2 Fig.1.

  • Monuments and Museums for Post-Apartheid South Africa
    Humanities 2013, 2, 72–98; doi:10.3390/h2010072 OPEN ACCESS humanities ISSN 2076-0787 www.mdpi.com/journal/humanities Article Creating/Curating Cultural Capital: Monuments and Museums for Post-Apartheid South Africa Elizabeth Rankin Department of Art History, University of Auckland, Private Bag 92019, Auckland 1142, New Zealand; E-Mail: [email protected] Received: 5 February 2013; in revised form: 14 March 2013 / Accepted: 21 March 2013 / Published: 21 March 2013 Abstract: Since the first democratic elections in 1994, South Africa has faced the challenge of creating new cultural capital to replace old racist paradigms, and monuments and museums have been deployed as part of this agenda of transformation. Monuments have been inscribed with new meanings, and acquisition and collecting policies have changed at existing museums to embrace a wider definition of culture. In addition, a series of new museums, often with a memorial purpose, has provided opportunities to acknowledge previously marginalized histories, and honor those who opposed apartheid, many of whom died in the Struggle. Lacking extensive collections, these museums have relied on innovative concepts, not only the use of audio-visual materials, but also the metaphoric deployment of sites and the architecture itself, to create affective audience experiences and recount South Africa’s tragic history under apartheid. Keywords: South African museums; South African monuments; cultural capital; transformation; Apartheid Museum; Freedom Park 1. Introduction This paper considers some of the problems to be faced in the arena of culture when a country undergoes massive political change that involves a shift of power from one cultural group to another, taking South Africa as a case study.

  • City Regeneration and the Making of an Urban Experience
    1 CHAPTER ONE: Mapping Thoughts and Establishing Direction 2 INTRODUCTION A whole history remains to be written of spaces – which would at the same time be the history of powers – from the great strategies of geopolitics to the little tactics of the habitat - Michel Foucault, 1980 as cited in Rotenberg 1995:1 The link between space making and power that Michel Foucault emphasises, underpins the significance of the Nelson Mandela Bridge’s (MNB) as an emblem for Johannesburg’s inner city regeneration1. This anthropological research looks at the NMB’s geo-historical, political and symbolic references and its position in the heart of the inner city; a project after apartheid bearing the name of Nelson Mandela to launch the city as a “world-class African [one]” 2. This investigation into the meanings of the NMB reflects on Johannesburg’s changing social dynamics by outlining selected experiences in the inner city during apartheid as a way to make sense of everyday expectations and experiences in the city’s downtown today. The meanings of the project are located in the juxtaposition of ordinary people’s expectations after apartheid with local, regional and national economic interests that combine with private enterprise to promote the city globally. I am interested in everyday responses to the project from people who live and trade informally in the inner city. This research looks at the arbitrariness of the project’s inception, its progressive planning and now also the contradictions inherent in its branding and official marketing. It is argued that the latter reflects the elitist aspirations of the urban developers that use the project’s emblematic significance to promote the inner city locally, nationally and internationally.
