Unpacking Pierre Bourdieu’s concept of “cultural capital” (1986: 243), and applying it to the South African art industry, I explore the direct impact that commercial galleries have on the building of artists’ careers through acts that result in the construction of cultural capital, and in what capacity they do this. Little has been written in South African art history about local commercial art galleries, and my interest in the role that they play in the construction of art history stems from my own involvement in this sector, as a commercial art gallery curator. As businesses, these institutions have profitable ambitions, and by successfully promoting the artists they represent, they are affecting the course of South African art history. Due to the potentially vast nature of this subject I have chosen to focus on one contemporary artist, Mikhael Subotzky, and his relationship with the one South African gallery he has been affiliated to throughout his entire professional career, the Goodman Gallery. As much as every person’s life is different, every person’s career is different too, and in this way I cannot use Subotzky’s career trajectory to explain all other contemporary South African artists’ careers, but I do believe that the impact that commercial galleries can have on the cultural capital surrounding artists in South Africa is a topic that should be explored further. I argue that there are various ways of gauging the cultural capital surrounding an artist in the South African art industry, and that one can look at various aspects of an artist’s career and assess their cultural capital. I substantiate this claim in this paper, and indeed why it is important to understand what role the commercial gallery can play in this construction.

Ntombela truly went above and beyond the call of duty; she constantly drove me to consider the facts from multiple angles, to continually push myself and to never give up. Prof Federico Freschi, Dr Rory Bester and Prof Michael Godby all patiently sat through interviews with me. I would like to thank them for their time, but mostly for their honesty and the great insight they provided me with into the world of academia and the commercial and non-commercial art industries. I would like to thank Mikhael Subotzky for providing me with the inspiration for this paper. His achievements as an artist have made this paper an interesting one to write, and I hope that my research will contribute to what shall no doubt be an intensive field of study on him and his artworks in the future. From the Goodman Gallery I would really like to extend my gratitude to Neil Dundas and Liza Essers. They both took time out of their staggeringly busy schedules to have lengthy interviews with me. They were straightforward in their answers and they provided me with a much greater awareness of the impressive institution that is the Goodman Gallery and its place in South African art history. From In Toto Gallery I would like to deeply thank Jacques Michau and Jessica Slack. They graciously let me have every Tuesday afternoon off for two years to work on this paper, something that often interfered with the running of In Toto. Despite this they provided me with consistent support and cheered me on from the side lines with the greatest spirit. I want to say a very big thank you to a client turned friend, Tanya Appelbaum, who kindly read this paper and offered her views and invaluable insight to me. I would like to thank the Oppenheimer Memorial Trust for their generosity in funding my Masters studies. Without their financial support I would not have been able to fulfil a lifetime dream of obtaining a Masters degree. I want to thank them for believing that I could do this. I would like to thank my mom and dad, Julianne and Andrew Kidd, who have always been the most supportive and inspiring parents. It is because of them that I have continued to push myself and strived to achieve the best that I can. And finally, I would like to thank my wonderful fiancé, Russell Scott. He has had to witness me working through the night and listen to my endless musings on the questions lying within this paper. He has been my constant rock, my loudest cheerleader and the reason this paper is finished. He believed in me from the start and I hope I did him proud.

Unpacking Pierre Bourdieu’s concept of “cultural capital” (1986: 243), and applying it to the South African art industry, I explore the direct impact that commercial galleries can have on the building of artists’ careers through acts that result in the construction of cultural capital, and in what capacity they do this. In examining the interconnected, developing art industry in South Africa I explore how galleries can influence what is seen as relevant in our commercial and non-commercial art industries. By selecting certain artists and artworks to be displayed and promoted, commercial galleries have a hand in shaping South African art history. My interest in the role that these galleries can play in the construction of art history stems from my own involvement in this sector, as a commercial art gallery curator. This paper is not without ambiguity, given that it forms part of an attempt to understand my own current chosen practice. My position as the writer of this paper is, therefore, not value-free, due to my investment within the field of inquiry. Nevertheless, I believe that a certain degree of critical distance has been upheld throughout the research and writing of this paper. I deem it important to investigate these private institutions and to unpack their often hidden workings in order to understand this aspect of the landscape of South African art history. Having gone through three years of undergraduate studies with Art History as one of my majors at the University of Cape Town (UCT), one year of Honours in Art History at the University of Witwatersrand (Wits), and two years of Masters in Art History at Wits, I have yet to encounter a course that mentions the role of the commercial gallery in the construction of South African art history.1 As 1 Elizabeth Mansfield, in her text Art History and its Institutions: Foundations of a Discipline (2002), touches on this notion.

Wednesday, Oct. k, I96I TELEPHONE: CIRCLE 5-8900 PRESS PREVIEW: Tuesday, Oct. 3, I96I 11 a.m. - k p.m. Assemblage, a method initiated by major artists early in this century, which has been Increasingly practiced by young artists here and abroad since World War II, is the flubject of a major exhibition The Art of Assemblage at the Museum of Modern Art from October k through November 12. Two hundred and fifty works by 130 artists were selected for the show by William C. Seitz, Associate Curator, Painting and Sculpture Exhibitions, who has also written the accompanying book.* An "assemblage" (a more inclusive term than the familiar "collage") is a work of art made by fastening together cut or torn pieces of paper, clippings from newspapers, photographs, bits of cloth, fragments of wood, metal or other such materials, shells or 8tones, or even objects such as knives and forks, chairs and tables, parts of dolls and mannequins, and automobile fenders. The symbolic meaning of these objects, not originally intended as art materials, can be as important as their realistic aspects. Seitz writes: When paper is soiled or lacerated, when cloth is worn, stained or torn, when wood is split, weathered or patterned with peeling coats of paint, when metal is bent or rusted, they gain connotations which unmarked materials lack. More specific assocations are denoted when an object can be identified as the sleeve of a shirt, a dinner fork, the leg of a rococo chair, a doll's eye or hand, an automobile bumper or a social security card.
