Exhibition " Defining Moments" in Johannesburg


Last Saturday I saw this exhibition at the Thompson Gallery in Mellville, Johannesburg. It closes on the 16th October.

The participating artists were BILLY AND JANE MAKHUBELE (beaded ncekas), JURGEN SCHADEBERG (photography), SUSAN WOOLF (sculpture), JOHANNES MASWANGANYI (sculpture), BEVERLEY PRICE (neckpieces) and ROY NDINISA (woodcuts)


These cloths, "ncekas" by Billy and Jane Makhubele, convey the presence of Mandela, by pattern and gesture alone.
