(Works by Cameron
Platter)
During this lockdown, the KZNSA Gallery in Durban would like to
introduce artists it has worked and collaborated with, in its new series: Meet
the Artist. Have some fun with them, collect their art, and watch their Q&A
videos on the Instagram and Facebook pages.
Friend of the KZNSA, Cameron Platter is a Durban treasure! The KZNSA had
the pleasure of exhibiting his work at the first Latitudes Art Fair in 2019,
and hosted his solo, GALAXY AS0-730223NMJ-ZSDSSS in 2018.
View his virtual studio visit on the KZNSA Instagram and Facebook pages
(they're unlike any other). Collect his work today.
Platter’s work filters, in a highly personal and idiosyncratic way, the
enormous amount of information available today. Blurring the distinction
between high and low, his eclectic and multi-disciplinary approach to art
making, typically draws from everyday, unorthodox, disparate, and often
over-looked sources
His work has been exhibited at MoMA (NY); SFMoMA; Palais de Tokyo,
Paris; Centre Pompidou, Paris; Le Biennale de Dakar, Senegal; and the South
African National Gallery.
He represented South Africa at the 55th Venice Biennale. His work is in
the permanent collection of MoMA, New York.
Recent gallery solo shows include Blank Projects, Cape Town; Gynp
Gallery, Berlin; Galerie Hussenot, Paris; 1301PE, Los Angeles; KZNSA Gallery,
Durban and WHATIFTHEWORLD Gallery, Cape Town. Look out for his gallery takeover
at KZNSA later this year.
Press features include The Los Angeles Times, Artforum, The New York
Times, NYAQ, The Guardian, The Wall Street Journal, Vice Magazine, and NKA
Journal of Contemporary African Art.
