About this product
Product Information
Encompassing black-and-white linoleum cuts made at community art centers in the 1960s and 1970s, resistance posters and other political art of the 1980s and the wide variety of subjects and techniques explored by artists in printshops over the last two decades, printmaking has been a driving force in contemporary South African artistic and political expression. Impressions from South Africa, 1965 to Now , published to accompany an exhibition at The Museum of Modern Art, introduces the vital role of printmaking through works by more than 20 artists in the Museum's collection. The volume features prints by John Muafangejo and Dan Rakgoathe, whose vigorous, metaphoric linoleum cuts conveying social messages were cultivated at Rorke's Drift Art and Craft Centre in the 1960s and 1970s, posters produced for anti-apartheid coalitions in the 1980s, and political work by Sue Williamson, Norman Catherine and William Kentridge, representing periods of apartheid resistance. More recent projects, including traditional etchings by Diane Victor, comic books by Bitterkomix, lithographs by Joachim Sch nfeldt and Claudette Schreuders and digital prints by Cameron Platter, address ongoing social issues and explore new subjects. New linoleum cut projects by a younger generation of artists--Paul Edmunds, Senzeni Marasela and Vuyile Voyiya--demonstrate the relevance of the medium in South Africa today. Judith B. Hesker, Assistant Curator of Prints and Illustrated Books at MoMA, contributes an introduction, biographies of the artists, publishers and printers, and a timeline of relevant events in South Africa.

Concisely and lucidly organized... in summarizing sources that may not be readily available to a Western audience, provides as solid an introduction to South African printmaking as one could hope for.... The end matter of the catalogue for Impressions from South Africa: 1965 to Now contains an invaluable compendium of information that will provide a major resource for scholars in the future. Included in these "yellow pages" are an extensive chronology (1948 to the present), artist biographies, notes on artists and political organizations, notes on publishers and printers (printmaking studios), and a selected bibliography., Imagine a collection of work both cheeky and charming, comical and terrifying, political and lyrical at the same time - a slap in the face to those in authority and a kick in the gut of viewers, yet a visual delight as well. That aptly describes 'Impressions from South Africa, 1965 to Now', an exhibition of nearly 80 prints, posters, books, postcards, stenciled wall installations and other material by 29 artists and collectives.

Super impressed with this seller! They had the best price by far for this book! Both the cost of the book and the shipping fee was far better than average! The book came exactly as described, it was well packaged and quite a bit earlier than expected! The seller was polite and replied quickly to my messages.
I’ll definitely make another purchase soon!
Thank you to the seller! Be safe and keep up the great work!
