Louis Jansen van Vuuren and Zwelethu Mthethwa
Longtime friends and renowned South African artists, Zwelethu Mthethwa and Louis Jansen van Vuuren, have been involved since 2007 in collaborative activities that attempt to enhance an inherent concept through points of confluence and visual dialogue. The works address contrasting points between the styles of Mthethwa, a Zulu, and Jansen van Vuuren, an Afrikaaner now living in France, in a manner that celebrates their differing backgrounds, their common heritage as South Africans and, above all else, their unique friendship.
2007 exhibition:
