Collective Study (Class)room Javett Family Collection

February 04, 2023 - January 28, 2024

Centred around two works from Javett Family Collection, this is a year-long reverse curatorial process is organised as an open ‘classroom’ or a collective study. The study will engage with works by two artists; Cecil Skotnes’ Last Supper  (1995) and Sam Nhlengethwa’s lithograph titled Glimpses of the ’50s and 60’s (2002/3).  This project favours participatory processes that are open to the public and will engage scholars and students from various disciplines as well as learners from the Javett-UP network of schools. Artists, political scientists, theologists, philosophers and archivists will also be invited to engage with visual elements and historical implications of these works whilst co-creating visual and textual responses inspired by them.
