Join us for a curator-led tour and discussion for the
Handle with Care exhibition curated by Gabi Ngcobo. Ngcobo will take us through
the curatorial decisions around the four
themes in the exhibition, mainly: Rituals of Self-Preservation, Dreamscapes,
Construction of Masculinities and Abstraction.
Handle With Care borrows its title from a mixed media
work by Johannesburg-based artist Kagiso Pat Mautloa, which he created in 1994.
This title allows us to centre one of the most important values of the
Javett-UP - Care. In this way the exhibition firmly situates the idea of an art
centre as a public space of care as well as it’s role in taking care of art
collections that were previously semi-private by facilitating their remediation
into a repository of knowledge to which people from different backgrounds could
claim a belonging.
