Please join us this Saturday 28 October at

Night is The Mother of Thoughts
- Galia
Gluckman
EBONY/CURATED Bordeaux House presents a solo
exhibition by Galia Gluckman, opening on Saturday 28
October at 11:30 am.
Gluckman's work explores the cycles of balance and
reinvention by bringing materiality to intangible
ideas, emotions, and memories that resist verbal
articulation. Through repeated arrangements, the
artist examines the tension felt between calm and
chaos, revealing a profound relationship between
artistic expression and human experience. These
abstract compositions embody the interplay between
light and dark, reflecting the overarching harmony
in life's dichotomy.
Having participated in many collective and solo
exhibitions, Gluckman is well-represented in both
private and corporate collections across the globe.
Locally, her work can be found in collections such
as the M & C SAATCHI ABEL Collection, Rupert
Collection, South African Presidential Collection
and The Spier Arts Collection.
Reimagined Futures
- Wole
Lagunju and Franck Kemkeng Noah
EBONY/CURATED Bordeaux House showcases the work of
Wole Lagunju and Franck Kemkeng Noah in this
exhibition, set to open as part of Franschhoek
Creates on Saturday 28 October at 11:30 am.
Wole Lagunju’s ink drawings use Adire motifs and
their associated meanings as a concept to examine
multiculturalism. His work critiques the racial and
social structures of the 19th century whilst evoking
contemporary commentaries on power, femininity, and
womanhood. Lagunju was awarded the Phillip Ravenhill
Fellowship by UCLA in 2006 and the Pollock Krasner
Award in 2009. His works are included in the Denver
Art Museum, St Louis Art Museum and the World Bank,
amongst others.
Franck Kemkeng Noah’s colour and rich incorporation
of detail offer a uniquely vibrant take on the
concepts of interculturalism, identity and
civilisation. Through a new series of works titled ‘Culte’,
the artist explores pre-colonial belief systems and
envisions a utopian world where differences in
religious practices cohabit together. Kemkeng Noah
has taken part in numerous exhibitions. In 2022, his
work was featured in a collective exhibition at the
Musée du Quai Branly - Jacques Chirac.
Respectively born in Nigeria and Cameroon, both
artists comment on post-colonial hierarchies,
reimagining futures informed by the knowledge and
perspectives of African diasporic communities.
Mūvek at EBONY/CURATED
EBONY/CURATED launches a collaboration with Mūvek,
featuring new pieces and specially commissioned
works at the Bordeaux House gallery’s upcoming event
on Saturday, October 28th at 11:30 am.
Mūvek is a local design studio conceptualised and
manufactured in South Africa. Drawing on early
20th-century Hungarian design, the brand experiments
with construction to create elegant pieces which
champion structural refinement and the contrast of
natural elements. Expressing a modernist approach to
assembly and working with skilled craftsmen, Mūvek
dissolves the boundary between everyday
functionality and art. |

We are thrilled to invite you to attend the
opening of a solo exhibition
Suspended Exposure by Jozelle McLeaopens
Thursday 2 November 2023 at 5PM
Suspended Exposure is about light, beauty, colour,
and the joy of flowers. Jozelle McLea’s floral
abstracts are inspired by the beauty of flora and
the way light plays off their blossoms.
Portraying light in painting is the long-standing
tradition wherein artists capture a fleeting moment
of beauty, like the memento mori of the Dutch Golden
Age. McLea’s abstracts reflect an imperfect
rendering and springtime explosion of floral beauty.
Jozelle’s palette and unexpected colours encourage
the eye to wander through her work as one would
through a field of flowers in spring, inviting the
viewer to get lost in the layers and textures. Her
paintings reflect the happiness that she feels in
relation to the subject matter, that light and
beauty is not just the visible, but the invisible
joyful innate connection between humans and nature.
Look forward to seeing you soon!
Much love, the DAOR Team
Please note, the exhibition closes end November
2023. We'd like to thank Jack Black Beer for their
generous sponsorship for the event. We would also
like to thank First Thursdays and their partners for
the Silo District event, American Express &

Opening Tuesday 7 November,
18:00
Barnard is pleased to present Echo, a curated
exhibition of works by selected emerging and
established artists. Drawn from both the primary and
secondary markets and exploring the mediums of
painting, printmaking and photography, the works in
this exhibition straddle different time periods in
the past decade.
Echoing earlier or previous conversations while
engaging new ones, this collection explores diverse
narratives relating to notions of identity, memory
and geography. These recurring themes and motifs
reverberate within this collection of works where
individual pieces become sounding boards for their
various counterparts.
The exhibition is open to view at Barnard Gallery
from 7 – 28 November and includes works by artists
Mohau Modisakeng, Lien Botha, Peter Eastman,
Tshepiso Seleke, Virginia MacKenny, Norman

RETIEF |
Wednesday 08
November to
Saturday 16
December 2023 |
|
EBONY/CURATED presents solo exhibition by Rentia
Retief opening Wednesday 8
November at 6 PM
This exhibition explores the deep connection between
the vast, earthen landscapes surrounding us and the
intricate emotional landscapes that dwell within. In
this series of charcoal drawings and oil paintings,
Retief plays with the idea of the intrinsic marks
that the earth leaves upon us both physically and
spiritually.
Inviting viewers to contemplate the interdependence
between our environment and our inner being- the
artist reflects how the outside world shapes our
thoughts and emotions, and in turn, how our inner
landscapes influence our perceptions of the world.
Retief focuses on the stillness of space, where
emotional and physical landscapes meet. By reducing
the portrayal of her landscapes to loose, gestural
brush strokes, the artist leaves the viewer with a
sense of longing for a place that once was or
perhaps never was in the first place…

We are thrilled to invite you to
attend the opening of CLUSTERPLAK? HOW BAZAAR!
Thursday 30 November 2023 at

Come spoil yourself for the price of eye-cream
darling, and buy a little artwork that'll fit in
your carry-on and into your end-of-year bonus.
While they say diamonds are forever, great art is
timeless. And art lasts a lot longer than that La
Mer you've been eyeing in How to Spend It.
Leading up to our 5th birthday we're having a
salon-style exhibition with artworks clustered and "plakked"
all over our massive walls like an art bazaar.
The focus of the show is to have affordable work you
can buy off the wall without breaking the bank.
December hosts a bumper exhibition at DAOR
Contemporary featuring over 30 artists we have
worked with since inception, and over 130 artworks..
Look forward to seeing you soon!
Much love, the DAOR Team <3

Andrew
Putter | Flowers
of the Cape
Peninsula, Vol.
1 |
Saturday 02
December 2023
from 15h00 till
18h00 |
|
Please join us on Saturday, 2 December at 15h00 for
a once-off showing of Andrew Putter's latest works.
Inspired by his long-term interest in indigenous
plants, each of Andrew Putter’s twelve new artworks
– collectively titled Flowers of the Cape Peninsula,
Vol. 1 – focuses on a different plant indigenous to
the Cape Peninsula, where he has lived and worked
his entire life. The Cape is the most species-rich
plant kingdom in the world, packing in more
botanical diversity per square meter than even the
planet’s rain forests. This floral abundance has
provided Putter with rich creative opportunities.
Putter’s new body of art brings to mind 17th century
Dutch flower paintings, Henri Matisse’s paper
cut-outs, Andy Warhol screen prints and David
Hockney’s iPad drawings. Over the five years of
preparing to make these new works, Putter returned
again and again to these influences. |

About
this Webinar:
This Enlightened
Community event
will take a deep
dive into a real
live case of
obtrusive light
and light
pollution. The
gory detail
about tackling a
case of
obtrusive light
will be
discussed in
detail,
including the
procedures that
need to be
followed to
restore harmony
in theses cases,
with a focus on
possible
solutions to
combat obtrusive
light and
minimize light
pollution in the
nighttime
environment.
To set the scene
for this webinar
we will take a
look at the full
glory of the
night sky. Ask
how does the
night sky differ
in variable
conditions?
Discuss how we
observe light
when out and
about and talk
about standards,
regulations and
guidelines.
After setting
the scene for
the real
obtrusive light
case, we will be
looking at
Google Earth,
then identify
the source of
the problem on
site and analyze
& report the
extent of the
problems to
mitigate for
obtrusive light
and light
pollution.
Finally we will
discuss lighting
design solutions
and techniques
to combat or
eliminate the
problem of
obtrusive light. |
