The Javett Art Centre at the University of Pretoria (Javett-UP) invites you and your media house to a special curator-led media walkabout of the newly installed exhibition One and the Many taking place as follows:
Date: Thursday, 24 July 2025
Time: 16:15 for 16:30
RSVP by Tuesday, 21 July 2025 to [email protected]
The walkabout will be led by guest curator Storm Janse van Rensburg and joined by three of the six invited artists, Abdus Salaam, Goldendean and Katlego Tlabela. Following the walkabout, we warmly invite you to stay for the official opening ceremony of the exhibition, which will commence at 18:00 on the same evening.
One and the Many features various constellations and groupings of artworks that explore the way in which artists narrate the relationship between the individual and the collective, or the self in relation to others. The thematic arrangements will investigate new relationships and meanings between artists, artworks, genres and periods in art history. Through spatial changes and curatorial gestures, this exhibition aims to open up different possibilities for reading images and artwork.
Guest curated by Storm Janse van Rensburg in collaboration with the Curatorial team, this exhibition brings together large scale artworks by leading contemporary South African artists Stephané E Conradie, Goldendean, Ledelle Moe, Abdus Salaam, Inga Somdyala and Katlego Tlabela to be in conversation with three collections in Javett-UP’s care: the South32 Collection, the Javett Family Collection and the Bongi Dhlomo Collection.
