(Re)construções

Lawrence Lemaoana is one of 13 South African artists selected by curator Daniella Géo for the exhibition “Reconstruções: arte contemporânea da África do Sul” [Reconstructions: Contemporary Art from South Africa] running until 15 May at the Brazilian Niterói Contemporary Art Museum (yes, that Oscar Niemeyer building). One day they’ll organize an exhibition on contemporary South African art without the work of Goldblatt, Ballen, Kentridge or Mofokeng. One day.

    Indeed.
    Much as I love her work, Zanele Muholi also belongs to that list of the usual go-to South Africans.

    Yup. True that, Tom.
    You snark, lol.

    Challenging the unchallenged remains virtually impossible. The recipe works, the profile fits, but thanks for that small act of bravery Tom!
