Art South Africa v8.3

Art South Africa v8.3

South African artists on seeing, thinking, making, living...
Sean O'Toole
Writing in the December 2008 issue of Art South Africa, art historian Marilyn Martin lamented "the dearth of texts by artists" in recent times. The March 2010 edition of Art South Africa, which will be launched in Cape Town at Design Indaba Expo(February 26-28, stand B11), directly addresses this absence.
Marlene Dumas

Marlene Dumas

The most complete and up-to-date monograph on the celebrated painter's work.
Editor: Dominic van den Boogerd
Marlene Dumas is celebrated around the world for her highly charged depictions of the human form. In her oil paintings, drawings and watercolours she captures the body in all its states, from pain to pleasure, eroticism to pathos, birth to death. These works often focus on the body as a contested site with regard to issues such as race, pornography and illegal immigration, but they also address such timeless themes as mortality, sexuality and childhood. Above all, they express a boundless faith in the power of painting to communicate complex psychological realities with eloquence and humour.
