Join the KZNSA Gallery tomorrow (March 25, 2018) at 11h00 with artist Peter
Ford as he does a walkabout of his solo exhibition, Accid3nt of Place.
Accid3nt of Place refers to the
tradition of Dada or Dadaism within art history - the avant-garde movement in
the early 20th Century that rejected the logic, reason and aestheticism of
modern capitalist society. Dada has become synonymous with the creative process
as being ‘accidental’. Dada offered a further rejection of the conventions of
high art which stresses laborious technique and action. The exhibition title
also refers to the idea that this artist’s body of work could only have been
produced in South Africa. Artworks and the exhibition installation are an
exploration of our social and political landscape and as such are presented as
a cultural/artistic tool of resistance.
All are welcome and entry is free.
Accid3nt of Place runs until April 9.
The KZNSA Gallery is situated at 166 Bulwer Road, Glenwood, in Durban. More
