  • Transforming the Iziko Bo-Kaap Museum Helene Vollgraaff 1
    Transforming the Iziko Bo-Kaap Museum Helene Vollgraaff 1 Introduction The Bo-Kaap Museum, managed by Iziko Museums of Cape Town 2, was established in 1978 as a house museum showing the lifestyle of a typical “Cape Malay” family of the 19 th century. The well-known University of Cape Town Orientalist, Dr. I.D. du Plessis, was the driving force behind the establishment of the museum. From the start, the Bo-Kaap Museum was heavily criticized for its Orientalist approach. In true I.D. du Plessis style, Cape Muslims were depicted as a separate cultural group with an exotic and charming lifestyle that seperated them from the rest of local society. The exhibitions and programmes of the museum tended to focus on Islam as an all-consuming identity and emphasized customs that distinguished Cape Muslims from other religious and cultural groups in Cape Town. The result was a skewed representation that did not do justice to the diversity within the Cape Muslim community and was silent about aspects of integration between the Muslim and broader Cape Town communities. 3 In 2003, Iziko Museums launched a project to redevelop the Bo-Kaap Museum as a social history museum with Islam at the Cape and the history of the Bo-Kaap as its main themes. This approach allowed the museum to challenge its own Orientalist roots and to introduce exhibitions dealing with contemporary issues. As an interim measure, Iziko developed a series of small temporary exhibitions and public programmes that together signaled Iziko Museum’s intent to change the content and style of the museum.

  • An Exhibition of South African Ceramics at Iziko Museums Article by Esther Esymol
    Reflections on Fired – An Exhibition of South African Ceramics at Iziko Museums Article by Esther Esymol Abstract An exhibition dedicated to the history and development of South African ceramics, Fired, was on show at the Castle of Good Hope in Cape Town, South Africa, from 25th February 2012 until its temporary closure on 28th January 2015. Fired is due to reopen early 2016. The exhibition was created from the rich array of ceramics held in the permanent collections of Iziko Museums of South Africa. Iziko was formed in 1998 when various Cape Town based museums, having formerly functioned separately, were amalgamated into one organizational structure. Fired was created to celebrate the artistry of South African ceramists, showcasing works in clay created for domestic, ceremonial or decorative purposes, dating from the archaeological past to the present. This article reflects on the curatorial and design approaches to Fired, and the various themes which informed the exhibition. Reference is also made to the formation of the Iziko ceramics collections, and the ways in which Fired as an exhibition departed from ceramics displays previously presented in the museums that made up the Iziko group. Key words ceramics, studio pottery, production pottery, Community Economic Development (CED) potteries, museums Introduction Fired – an Exhibition of South African Ceramics celebrated South Africa’s rich and diverse legacy of ceramic making. The exhibition showcased a selection of about two hundred ceramic works, including some of the earliest indigenous pottery made in South Africa, going back some two thousand years, through to work produced by contemporary South African ceramists. The works were drawn mainly from the Social History Collections department of Iziko Museums of South Africa.1 Design and curatorial approaches Fired was exhibited within an evocative space in the Castle, with arched ceilings and columns and presented in two large elongated chambers (Fig.1).
