missingchildren.co.za Company Overview: Missing Children SA (Registered with Department of Social Development NPO 067-095) is a project undertaken by concerned and compassionate South Africans aimed at assisting those most vulnerable in our society, our children if they need help. Missing Children SA was launched on Friday 9 March 2007 during a Pinkday Memorial we organised for Sheldean Human at the gates of Parliament. The very same day a girl from Michells Plain, Stacie Wiese, disappeared and her body found 2 days later. Mission: It is a known fact that the first 24 hours are crucial when a child disappears. We have looked at various systems all over the world and have based our program on the American Amber Alert system. When a child goes missing we engage with radio stations, newspapers, websites and others to get the information available to the general public. We also will print flyers and share it with our volunteers to assist. With this information being released while the trail is still hot, the chances of success are much greater and that is where our volunteers come in.

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.
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.
Three Essays on Photography
Editor: Sean O'Toole
The past decade has seen a number of South African photographers rise to local and international prominence. The Summer 2009 issue of Art South Africa, on shelf from December 1, 2009 through February 28, 2010, profiles three highly awarded talents: Pieter Hugo, Mikhael Subotzky and the collaborative duo of Adam Broomberg and Oliver Chanarin.
