We want full equal rights for every South African, without reference to race, language, ethnic origin, or creed. We believe in a single South Africa with a single set of governmental institutions, and we work together towards a common loyalty and patriotism. Yes this is not a call for a homogenized South Africa made up of identikit citizens. South Africa is now said to be a bilingual country: we envisage a multilingual country, it will be multifaith and multilingual as well. The objective is not to create a model culture into which everyone has to assimilate, but to acknowledge and take pride in the cultural variety of our people. Preparing Ourselves for Freedom: Culture and the ANC Constitutional Guideline. Published in Protecting Human Rights in a New South Africa by Albie Sachs. Former Constitutional Court Judge Albie Sachs in this beautifully written statement called for an inclusive new culture post-Apartheid, a culture that would reach across lines of social division, sparked and inspired by a cross-pollination of cultures that would highlight a shared belonging across South African people, whilst also giving voice to a diversity of heritages. Within this vein, art stands as a medium for this cross-pollination through globalised interactions and exchanges - art happenings such as the Investec Cape Town Art Fair has become an important meeting point for a dialogue between African galleries and artists. It is therefore, in light of this that I am pleased to announce that for the first time, we welcome North African and Tunisian galleries. Their participation strengthens one of the fairs goals to provide a platform for more voices from the African continent and create a connection between southern and northern Africa. What Investec Cape Town Art Fair have strived to maintain over the years is to create an ongoing dialogue with a wide range of artists, galleries and curators spanning across different parts of the world; always paying special attention to issues of sustainability and legacy. We would like to extend our sincere gratitude to our local galleries who not only support the fair but showcase inspiring presentations, offering only the most unique selection of artworks and hosting engaging programming during the art fair week. We extend our appreciation to Investec for their confidence in the potential of art, and for their continued support of the Fair as our title sponsor. Finally, we thank our parent company Fiera Milano S.p.A, a global leader in exhibition management and the organisers of miart art fair. We continue to draw upon their wealth of expertise, and Investec Cape Town Art Fair has continued to grow in size and quality as a result. We are proud to present Investec Cape Town Art Fair 2020, which will create an extraordinary experience for all. Laura Vincenti, Fair Director 8 INVESTEC A WORD FROM We welcome you to the 2020 Investec Cape Town Art Fair and this year’s campaign theme of art is a human investment. This year’s focus is on education. Art unlocks critical thinking skills in children and yet it’s one of the first subjects to be dropped in schools when resources are scarce. We invite you to not only enjoy the art but also to appreciate what art can do for those who get the opportunity to create it. It’s a privilege to play a role in the promotion of arts and culture in South Africa, a country as diverse as the art displayed at this year’s fair. As lead sponsor of Investec Cape Town Art Fair, for a third consecutive year, we believe that art has a value beyond wealth. It is a human investment that breaks down barriers and unites people through the universal language of an appreciation of creativity. The fair showcases pieces curated from local and international artists, allowing us to create a platform for African artists to share their work with the world. As an organisation that’s invested in art, education and each other, and as the human brand that we are, we hope you will be inspired and enriched by the showcase.

Canepa was later joined by members of the Neri family in the management of the Gallery. The Gallery currently represents several artists belonging to different cultures and experts in diverse artistic techniques and practices, some of whom have participated in significant Art Fairs and events. With its two modern locations, one being in the historical centre of Genoa, and the other in Brera, “the neighborhood of art”, in Milan - the Gallery’s activity carries on two parallel paths. On the one hand, it aims to promote the fundamental figures of art between the Fifties and Seventies and to rediscover ground-breaking artists of that period, such as Claudio Costa. On the other hand, the Gallery focuses on the discovery and enhancing of young Italian and international artists, allowing them a platform to experiment and develop their practice. The artists who collaborate with the Gallery can rely on well-developed and refined exhibitions that profoundly aid them on their artistic path. The gallery will present a solo show of: Danica Lundy, Hey there Delilah (2019), Danica Lundy Ballpoint pen on paper mounted on canvas 76.2 x 101.6cm DIRECTOR CONTACT Marco Canepa +39 0236768281 ADDRESS [email protected] Foro Buonaparte, 48 20121 Milan, www.canepaneri.com Italy facebook: @canepaneri instagram: @canepaneri 12 FIRST FLOOR GALLERY HARARE AMANDA MUSHATE First Floor Gallery Harare is Zimbabwe’s leading contemporary art gallery and educational space.

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.

  • South African Artists at the Constitutional Court of South Africa
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Decoding Memories: South African Artists at the Constitutional Court of South Africa A thesis submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in African Studies by Mary Ann Braubach 2017 © Copyright by Mary Ann Braubach 2017 ABSTRACT OF THESIS Decoding Memories: South African Artists at the Constitutional Court of South Africa by Mary Ann Braubach Master of Arts in African Studies University of California, Los Angeles, 2017 Professor William H. Worger, Chair This paper examines the decoding of the memory of apartheid and post apartheid years of South Africa’s recent history. And it contextualizes how the struggle influenced the visual arts. Also analyzed are the history of the Constitution and Constitutional Court of South Africa. It interrogates the formation of the Constitutional Court art collection. by Justices Albie Sachs and Yvonne Mokgoro for the yet-to-be-constructed Constitutional Court building in Johannesburg. Many donated artworks are responsive both to the anti- apartheid struggles and also to the new democracy. The essay also examines the underlying politic that now hangs in the Constitutional Court building. Select works, that function as signifiers of the new Constitution, are examined. I draw on interviews with South African artists, Court Justices and curators to investigate the role of memory, the archeology of the site, and the significance of the collection to the artists, the Justices, and citizens of South Africans twenty years post apartheid.

The camera was an im- portant tool to Europeans in the appropria- tion of land. In 1858, the Scottish missionary David Livingstone asked his brother Charles to photograph an expedition to the Victoria Falls (which he had “discovered” in 1855). He wanted “to extend the knowledge already attained of the geography and mineral and agricultural resources” there, in the hope that “raw material” might be “exported to England in return for British manufactures”. When those that followed came to depict the land for its own sake, they relied on a vi- sual aesthetic adopted from French art. They did not record the landscape: they “invented” it. Throughout the 19th and early 20th cen- turies, white salon photographers developed an iconography that aimed to reveal a virgin territory whose mountains, plains and tribal inhabitants illustrated the grandeur of the imperial project.

  • Paul Ndema, Uganda Ndema Paul Was Born in Uganda in 1979
    Paul Ndema, Uganda Ndema Paul was born in Uganda in 1979. He studied at the Margaret Trowell School of Industrial and Fine Arts, Makerere University from 1999-2002 where he obtained a Bachelors degree in Fine Arts. In this latest series of work, Paul Ndema’s technical proficiency together with his satirical interpretations of religious moral order gives his paintings a unique and playful insight into the meeting of tradition and modernity. His final pieces are the result of his experiences growing up in a Catholic family together with his questioning of the ethics of those in positions of power and influence. His subjects, often self-portraits, are elevated to an iconic status yet compromised by the artist’s use of irony. Ndema places his subjects on colourful, patterned and symbolic backgrounds and his use of light suggests that his subjects are both literally and figuratively in the spotlight. Most recently he has participated in FNB Joburg Art Fair (2016); Circle Modern and Contemporary Art Auction in Nairobi (2015, 2014); Cape Town Art Fair (2015); Kampala Art Biennale (2014) and East African Encounters Exhibition, Circle Art Gallery (2014). His work is also housed in many international private collections. Ato Malinda, Kenya Ato Malinda (born 1981, Kenya), lives and works in Rotterdam. She has a Master of Fine Arts (MFA) from Transart Institute, New York. Her works consist of performance, drawing, painting, installation, video, and ceramic object-making. Through her diverse practice, Malinda investigates the hybrid nature of African identity, contesting notions of authenticity. She has worked with western museums to dispel notions of a Unitarian Africa, so often seen in ethnographic exhibitions.

  • Highly Personal Curated by Gary Schneider
    Stephen Daiter Gallery is pleased to present… Highly Personal Curated by Gary Schneider South African Artists Hasan and Husain Essop; David Goldblatt; Pieter Hugo; Donna Kukama; Terry Kurgan; Senzeni Marasela; Nandipha Mntambo; Zanele Muholi; Cedric Nunn; Jo Ractliffe; Mikhael Subotzky and Andrew Tshabangu. ...and Their HandPrint Portraits Gary Schneider I left South Africa in 1977 at the age of 23. In 2011, I returned for my first exhibition there, and began making handprint portraits of South African artists. A Guggenheim Fellowship allowed me to continue the project through 2013. I embarked on the project and traveled widely in order to meet artists and, through them, understand what it means to be a South African artist two decades after the end of apartheid. These handprints do not reveal race, economic status, gender or age. They all follow the same format. I set up a process in which the person is responsible for the information deposited in the film emulsion — it is an assisted self-portrait. The variables are their performance and gesture, the physical shape of the hand, their body chemistry, and their relationship to me. For this exhibition at Stephen Daiter Gallery I have selected the work of thirteen artists — who are all photographers, or artists who use photography — to be exhibited along with their handprint. This is a very small group from the seventy-seven artists published in HandPrints: South African Artists, Fourthwall Books, 2015 which is itself a subset of the more than two hundred handprint portraits I made in South Africa over the three years I spent there.

    N O M A D G A L L E R Y B R U S S E L S HELEN TEELE Artist Statement / Bio / CV ARTIST STATEMENT: My paintings are grounded in the idea of “staying with the trouble.”1 They open up an exploration of abject bodies and monstrous shadows that we have to learn to live with and make kin with in a time characterised by ecological and humanitarian crisis. I am neither searching for polemic truths, nor pretending that the trouble isn’t there, but rather trying to find a visual way of sitting with it and learning how to be with it. For me painting is an intersectional medium that offers a peculiar, non-binary logic which the rigidities of language and positivism preclude. It doesn’t try to make the world transparent, but rather allows it to exist in the thickness of being that makes the world worldly.2 It is the most direct way for me to explore multi-layered meanings, not-knowing and uncertainty, and of translating the ways in which the body – conflicted, gendered, cultural, political, sexual and social as it is – comes to know the world by literally being in the world, as a human body in a multi-species environment, and learning how to live with its thickness, its contrariness, its opacity, its mystery and its trouble.
