The KZNSA, in association with Michael Stevenson Gallery, is pleased to present a survey exhibition by Conrad Botes. The work on show is a document of the artist’s grappling with the primal urges at the root of suffering. His imagery is rooted in our time and our dilemmas, yet strongly references the biblical notions of sin, retribution, guilt and, ultimately, redemption. In his title for the show, 'On Earth as it is in Heaven', he reminds us how we make God in our image, and that the Christian notions of judgement are ultimately us judging ourselves.

The solo exhibition 'Andhra Pradesh' by acclaimed Pretoria-based artist Makiwa Mutomba is inspired by his recent cultural exchange visit to Hyderabad, a city in the southern state of Andhra Pradesh in India. Mutomba’s exhibition consists of small to miniature oil paintings in his signature pallete-knife style. He notes, 'As an artist, I seek color in everything I see and so, upon my arrival in India, I was immediately drawn to the colours of the place… It is an artist’s paradise, the colours of the saris and the painted dwellings, the Rangoli (floor painting using either sand, flowers or rice)… Colour is certainly very important to the Indians – I was fascinated to learn that there is even a Festival of Colours'.
