Exhibition Bongumenzi Ngobese

From the 7th of January to the 13th of February 2013 at the Alliance française of Pretoria, the Durbanese Artist and  winner of the 2010 ABSA Atelier Gerard Sekoto Award Bongumenzi Ngobese will present his artworks made during his stay in Paris. Ngobese explains his artistic endeavour like this: "My work is an investigation of cultural identity. Through my investigation, I look at daily cultural activities being implemented and regulated by black people in the cityscape. In this regard I look at my experience of being a Zulu male, negotiating a place to live in the urban context. I make use of traditional motifs from my heritage as a referent point to my identity in combination with mundane objects I find in the environment."
