SOUTH AFRICA. 1994. - William KENTRIDGE, film maker. His work is poetic, lucid and eloquent, fully engaged with the situation in Soiuth Africa, but refreshingly free of the political self consciousness that circumscribes the work of many others, Kentridgre is currently producing a series of drawings that make up films (or films that require drawings). - Gueorgui Pinkhassov

SOUTH AFRICA. 1994. - SOUTH AFRICA. South African artist Malcolm PAYNE. He is an installation artist, recently he built up woth shopping carts, ancient and new ceramics, text and light projections a piece which was impressive but made no concessions to a population unacquainted with the discourse of contemporary art. 1994. - Gueorgui Pinkhassov

SOUTH AFRICA. 1994. - SOUTH AFRICA. South African artist Willie BESTER. He is perhaps the most highly regarded urban black artist in South Africa at the moment. His work is powerful collage/assemblage pieces that juxtapose found materials from the township with painted images. One work has bits of barbed wire, a copy of the Government book categorising the various races, snapshots of a racist attack that, according to official documents, never too place and a police officers' ammunition belt.

SOUTH AFRICA. 1994. - SOUTH AFRICA. Venda Region. South African sculptor Jackson HLUNGWANI. He is often identified as the greatest black artist in South Africa. Until two years ago, he lived on top of a hill, among the great stone circles that mark the site of an ancient citadel. God came to him and told him to live there, to make great carvings to His glory, and he laid out a sacred ground filled with giant monuments. At the center was a crucifix, 20 feet high. Hlungwani became famous all over Venda and Gazunkul for his preaching and his life in THE NEW JERUSALEM, and for his personal iconography, his strange four eyed faces, as eerie and intimidating as the heads on Easter Island, seem alive, as though he has let free something organic in the trees. 1994. - Gueorgui Pinkhassov

SOUTH AFRICA. 1994. - SOUTH AFRICA. Johannesburg. South African artist Kendall GEERS. Geers the most articulate of the crowd of artists at the Speedy Bag Factory in Johannesburg, is the bad boy of South African art; he deconstructs his society, sometimes very cleverly, sometimes apparently unaware that intellectual constructs already exhausted abroad cannot serve in South Africa as the basis for internationalism. The work of these white BAG FACTORY artists, is sometimes too sophisticated; they fail to realise that nothing is more provincial than to deny your own provincialism. 1994. - Gueorgui Pinkhassov
