AAG Art Picks - December 2024 by Dr. Liese Van der Watt

Published 20 December 2024 in News

We are excited to present our monthly art picks, thoughtfully selected by Dr. Liese Van der Watt!

 

Dr Liese Van Der Watt is a South African art historian based in London. Her writing and curatorial projects consistently aim to centre contemporary African artists with her perspective always positioned in the "South" - defined as politics, not geography. Recent curatorial projects include a retrospective of artist Berni Searle at Norval Foundation in Cape Town in 2023, and currently an exhibition entitled  “We, the People: 30 years of democracy in South Africa” also at Norval Foundation, until November 2025.
