THE PROJECT SPACE CO-CREATE COLLABORATIVE RESIDENCY PROGRAM 2019

The program is aimed at supporting young South African female visual artists by providing free studio space, materials, exhibition opportunity, continual support and exposure through local and international art fairs.

Two to four thriving female artists are selected from a wide range of applications. We congratulate APS graduate Dudu “DuduBloom” More on being one of two winners announced on 27 September!

 We are really excited to see continuous growth from DuduBloom. We are proud of the role model she has become for APS female artists!

 

THAMI MNYELE FINE ARTS AWARDS 2019

"Art must become a process - a living, growing thing that people can relate, identify with, be part of, understand; not a mysterious world a universe apart from them." – Thami Mnyele

The annual Thami Mnyele Arts Awards celebrates artists who explore various artistic media to express metaphors and their ability to reflect the world we live in. The competition, in its 32nd year, was hosted in The City of Ekurhuleni on 28 September at the Coen Scholtz Recreation Centre.

On the evening two of APS’ very own were the prize winners selected by a team of adjudicators. 

SIZWE KHOZA – Winner of the FIRST PRIZE

 
 LINDO ZWANE – Winner of the PAINTING MERIT AWARD
 
APS is so proud of the amazing accomplishments by Sizwe and Lindo! May you continue to inspire the students, show them what is possible with hard works and determination!
