Currently running at artSPACE durban is a
group exhibition titled Together Apart.
“When we are talking about living ‘together
apart’ we are describing the lifestyle of two partners/siblings/relatives who
do not necessarily live under one roof. Maybe what we are describing can be
called a sort of tribe (n: a large group of related families who live in the
same area and share a common language, religion, and customs),” says Karen
Bradtke of artSPACE.
“Together
Apart is about two connected people with the same intense interest in art
and creativity, but whose works might be different and, therefore, ‘cannot be
put under one roof’, except during this exhibition!” she adds.
Participating artists are Chris de Beer
& Marlene de Beer; Heather Pattenden & Mhairi Pattenden; Miranda Crooks
& Nicholas Crooks; Karla Nixon & Dane Stops; Pascale Chandler &
Claude Chandler;
Grace Kotze & Melody French, and Ian
Calder & Nina Calder.
