Description

"This publication documents four chapters of the exhibition Re/discovery and memory. The retrospectives of eminent South African sculptors, Sydney Kumalo and Ezrom Legae - the first to be undertaken by any institution globally - chronicles their innovative artistic practices. They are presented alongside fellow sculptor and friend Edoardo Villa, whose work between 1958-68 gives insight into the interactions of these artists associated with Polly Street Art Centre and the Amadlozi Group. Working with his ongoing concern regarding the notion of displacement, Serge Alain Nitegeka's contemporary practice - as experienced through his immersive installation - offers us a means for reassessing Villa's own engagement with immigration, as seen in his early works"--back cover.
