"MAGIC MOMENTS"
2000-08-08 until 2000-08-30
Johannesburg Civic Gallery
Johannesburg, ,
ZA South Africa
The Johannesburg Civic Gallery presents Magic
Moments, an exhibition that explores different
aspects of the feminine through the work of
several artists. The work of these artists reveal a
kaleidoscope of relationships between women and
the material world, illness, man, G-d, war, sex
and death.
Curated by artist Minette Vari, the
exhibition is a departure from the very Eighties
notion of theme shows. As such, Vari has invited
male and female artists to participate. In the
works chosen however, there is a definite
emphasis on women's experience of a new era in
history and her position in and relation to an
ever-changing world.
Artists exhibiting
include Italian artist
Daniel Buetti, Swiss video artist Mo Diener, Noritoshi Hirakawa from Korea,
Zimbabwe's Yvonne Vera and South Africans Tracey Rose, Jan van der
Merwe & Kathryn Smith
The exhibition runs to coincide with South African National Women's Day, 9 August 2000
This exhibition is made possible through the generous sponsorship of the
MTN Art Institute
