TWELVE

Exhibition by participants in the third KZNSA Professional Practice Course.

Twelve is an exhibition just opened at the KZNSA that encapsulates the grouping of 12 stylistically diverse artists who have risen to the challenge of the Professional Practice Course offered by the KZNSA. This impressive body of work is the culmination of the practical component of this interactive three-month course, developed for those committed to a career in the arts and engagement in the professional art market.

The 12 represented artists include painters Wendy Bowman, Bronwyn Chelius, Michelle Chelius, Anne Cleveland, Jane Digby, Maureen Edgcumbe, Hilary Grant-Currie, Ana Pereira de Vlieg, Carey Simpson, Janet Solomon, Jill Sysum and fashion designer Joel Janse van Vuuren.

Of interest is not only the visualisation of the rapid growth many artists experienced during this intensive period, but also the revelation of the formative processes that support the thinking and preparation behind the development of these works.

Twelve runs until May 2 at noon. There will be an Artists’ Walkabout on April 25 and May 2 at 11h00. The Seminar of Artists’ Research Projects takes place on April 22 at 17h30.

The KZNSA Gallery is situated at 166 Bulwer Road, Glenwood, in Durban. More information on 031 277 1703, fax 031 201 8051 or cell 082 220 0368 or visit www.kznsagallery.co.za
