(Andrew
Verster, paper collage, A4)
Having made it through Valentine’s Day
unscathed, artSPACE durban decided to see a bit more red. They put a callout to
artists to create any media of art but they may only use red (and shades of
it). Pure or solid red, scarlet, vermilion, crimson, Alizarin crimson, maroon,
burgundy, ruby … and the list goes on.
The result of that call-out was a
fascinating array of work from the following participating artists: Catherine
Stempowski, Samantha Vincent, Andrew Verster, Jabulani Cele, Sharleen Boaden,
Angie Arbuthnot, Adrienne D’Aeth, anet norval, Rob Domijan, Terence King, Di
van Wyk, Michele Silk, Karen Bradtke, Hermine Spies Coleman, Brigitte Laurent,
Sarah Kelly, Jane Oliver, Anthea Martin, Marianne Meijer, Alice Joubert,
Veronica Peano, Pam Benporath, Sharon McClelland, Jenny Glaysher Andrews, Jane
Digby, Ann-Marie Nason, Ephraim Ncobo, Steyn Pretorius, Saxon Kirton, Karen
Pretorius, Akiko Nakaji, Sarojini Muller, Lesley Magwood Frasier, Liz Speight,
Di van Wyk, Cindy Powell, Neena Pitamber, Pascale Chandler, Anne Cleveland,
Devika Pillay, Nicole Gatland, and Coral Spencer
