    Episode 04 - Making great work
    2024/02/07
    This is the final instalment of this podcast and we are speaking about making great work. Is there a so-called “secret sauce” that an artist can work to? Or it is more mystical and magical?

    We are talking to 2017 Standard Bank Young Artist for Visual Art, Beth Diane Armstrong, and Ashraf Jamal - academic, writer and cultural theorist whose most recent books include In the World: Essays on Contemporary South African Art (published in 2017) and its follow up STRANGE CARGO: Essay's on Art (published in 2022).

    We would like to thank the Friedrich Naumann Foundation for supporting this project https://www.freiheit.org

    as well as Quorum Holdings for their ongoing support of the META Foundation - https://www.qholdings.co.za For images of the artworks & links to purchase Ashraf Jamal's books · META Foundation on Facebook · META Foundation on Twitter · META Foundation on Instagram · Connect with META Foundation on LinkedIn

    Episode 03 - Working with a gallery & preparing for an exhibition
    2024/02/07
    This episode is centred around working with a gallery and planning an exhibition. We speak to guests Julie Taylor, from Guns and Rain, and Vivien Kohler, an artist, about reaching out to galleries; the inner workings of galleries; making sales; preparing for an exhibition; and using all the opportunities presented to you.

    Guns & Rain works with contemporary visual artists from seven African countries, including South Africa, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Namibia, Botswana, Eswatini, and Nigeria. Most of our artists are emerging, and focus on social, political and historical themes.

    The gallery was established in 2014 to address the under-representation of African artists in the international art scene. It was one of the first online galleries in Africa and was ahead of its time, with its first curated online exhibition taking place in 2015 in collaboration with WISER, Wits University. They now have a permanent space located at 5, 3rd Avenue (next door to Courier Guy) Parkhurst.

    Born in 1976 in Johannesburg, South Africa, Vivien Kohler is an experimental mixed-media painter. The concept of liminality; the liminal city and its people, lies at the core of Kohler's work, which explores migration, marginalization and displacement in the urban landscape of post-Apartheid South Africa.

    Kohler constructs two and three-dimensional assemblage pieces; appropriating discarded material, painting naturalistic figures and detailed replications of packaging material (a layered visual metaphor signifying transience, migration, displacement), to articulate challenging social and economic circumstances that affect those on the periphery.
