Let us Make It Actual

Dated back to the 1980s, artists whose is effective have been demonstrated in ‘Let’s make it real’ are a testomony to the profitable mentorship programmes that took their talent to the upcoming stage.

Numerous of the artists ended up mentored at CAP, The Basis Faculty of Arts, The Visual Art Team in Nyanga or Rorke’s Drift in the late 1990s Art Centre. Some of these artists have also participated in the Thupelo workshops at Greatmore Studios.

The Gallery has integrated two younger artists Boyce Magandela and Meshack Tembani since their do the job carries a very similar narrative and content. A lot more than explicit, these performs converse of the plight in the overcrowded townships. It is an encounter of the struggles, the joys of the jazz live shows and Friday night dances, and drinking at the shebeens. They subsequently talk the unedited truth of daily life in the townships.

The complete display is hence an practical experience. An invitation to get to know these artists and the journey they took to get to where they are today.
