GAUTENG, NOTH WEST, MPUMALANGA, WESTERN CAPE / GALLERY GUIDE | ART TIMES

06 SA ART TIMES. May 2012

PortchiePortchie is an unusual if not unique phenomenon in South African contemporary art. He is extremely prolifi c when he paints, and each piece is snapped up. He’s unassuming, articulate to the point when he speaks with a staccato burst of words and – just plain plucky. For Portchie is that rarest of people, a man who discovered his calling fairly late in life and then there was no holding him back. He is arguably the most successful contemporary artist in South Africa.

There’s a saying that the test of courage comes when you are in the minority, the test of tolerance comes when you are in the majority. Portchie took his courage in both hands in 1992 when he decided to stake his name on his quick and undisputed ability with a brush and canvas. Why was he so confi dent?

“I paint universal themes; children hop-scotching, people riding bicycles, people reading – my a r t doesn’t know any languages and this means it is equally as popular in America, Germany, the United Kingdom or

South Africa,” he says. “It is not diffi cult to understand or appreciate.”

But there is more to Portchie’s work than an easy understandability. Now that he is widely known around the world he has an easy tolerance for others who, he concedes, may have tried as hard but have not met with his astonishing success. A painting by Portchie is always intensely colourful – he seems to see the world in terms of warm yellows, vivid blues, bright reds, and intense greens. He says that part of the secret is that he uses Grumbacher acrylics – “the fi nest pigments of all paints in the world”. What is equally true is that his equable nature seems to have no room for twilights, for half-shades or for shadow tones.

For Portchie the world is a bright, cheerful place and this contagion communicates itself immediately with the viewer.

It is very obviously a universal appeal and Portchie has known success ever since he started painting.

PORTCHIE’s 20 TO 40 Winter Exhibitionwill take place at Alice Art Gallery, 217 Dryf Street, Ruimsig

Sunday, 3 June 2012 from 11h00 - 17h00 Sms to 083 377 1470 to RSVP

Fine Art Printmaking in SA Today Feature

By Kim Berman. Photographs: Christo Harvey

Now that Artist Proof Studio has ‘come of age’ as a dynamic community-based printmaking studio, it is opportune to reflect upon aspects that have sustained its growth over the years. When I returned to Johannesburg in 1990, after seven years of study in Boston, I was inspired by three things. The first was the tradition of community arts organizations in South Africa, such Rorke’s Drift and FUNDA, that had nurtured the outstanding talents of the disadvantaged majority during the many years of oppression. The second, more immediate source of inspiration was my experience at the Artist’s Proof, a printmaking collective in Cambridge, where while training as a master printer, I learned about the virtues of printmak-ing collaborations , co-operative exchange as well as the management of a printmaking studio. The third and most important source of inspiration was Nelson Mandela’s call for each one of us to contribute to democracy in a post-apartheid South Africa. Determined to implement that vision, I sold my belongings, purchased a French Tool etching press and shipped it from the U.S. to a yet-to-be established organization in Johan-nesburg. Through my mother’s Frame-Up art gallery, I was fortunate to meet artist-teacher Nhlanhla Xaba, who despite his commitment to black consciousness, was willing to join me, as a white woman in co-founding a multi-racial studio. In turn, Xaba brought in many of the established Rorke’s Drift-trained artists as founding members, including Sokaya Charles Nkosi, Vincent Baloyi, Mmakgabo Sebedi, Muzi Donga and others, who shared the vision of art-making to imagine and to foster an educated, egalitarian society.The early years of capacity-building as a means of redress were not always easy. The first studio at 57 Jeppe St in Newtown was far from state-of-the art, but the real challenge lay in overcoming the racial distrust fostered during the apartheid years. Despite this legacy, teachers and students alike were determined and energized by the vision of being a part of building a democratic co-operative studio that reflected the magical energy of Mandela’s vision of a new South Africa. During these years of ‘redress,’ I taught evening classes and fund-raised, while Nhlanhla, a gifted teacher, managed the daily operations of the studio. I then joined the former Wits Technikon now University of Johannesburg as a full time lecturer. We were able to celebrate our stability as an organization with a move to ex-panded quarters at Building #9, 1 President Street, in 1995, as a venue for the first Africus Johannesburg Biennale that marked South Africa’s entry into the international art-world.

APS undertook an ambitious print exchange with nine countries which we called Volatile Alliances and in the process Nhlanhla and I trained our students Ezekiel Budeli and later Osiah Masakwameng as excellent edition printers.

From the beginning, art production at Artist Proof Studio has explored collaboration through working in teams. Over the years, collaborative prints and murals have been created that link APS to the public realm, creating a broader awareness of pressing issues such as HIV/AIDS or xenophobia in the public mind and that of the APS artists as well.This first phase of optimism and growth was abruptly terminated by the catastrophic fire of March 9, 2003 that burned APS to the ground, taking with it not only all of the artists’ works, but even more disastrously, the life of Nhlanhla Xaba, mentor, teacher and friend. I was determined that the vision he had lived and died for would continue. Fortunately, the news of Xaba’s tragic death galvanized the South African art community, which, with extraordi-nary generosity, contributed to the building of new quarters in the former Bus Factory at One President Street. It still today seems miraculous that the beautiful new facility opened one year to the day after the fire, on March 9, 2004. Since then, we have been sustained by two fundamental concepts: imagination and resilience—that guide our efforts to construct our future.The process of transformation and rebirth also involved the challenge of reconciliation. I remain grateful to my sister, Hayley Berman, founder of the Lefika Art Therapy Centre, who partnered with APS artists to discuss issues of loss and regeneration, opening the wounds that led to healing. Shortly thereafter, the students created the collaborative “Out of Fire’ collages from the remains of the burnt prints. Lining the staircase of Artist Proof Studio, they convey a continuous, inspiring message: new art and a new future can be created out of trauma and loss. To further facilitate reconciliation, I presented a challenge to all APS members to regard the organization as an ubuntu space, a space of sharing and of honoring traditional communal values. The most recent phase of our history has focused on the role of the artist as a citizen actively contributing to social justice. While the artists’ individual works continue to explore issues of identity and their personal journeys, they are also engaged in alliances with both NGOs and businesses to address public concerns. In 2006, in preparation for the Sasol Wax Award exhibition, each member of APS made a print that honored someone they knew who had died of HIV/AIDS. Continues on next page

Reflections on Artist Proof Studio at 21

Coming of Age is a retrospective exhibition of Artist Proof Studio (APS) which celebrates 21 years of printmaking in Newtown. The exhibition will open on 6th May 2012 at the Johan-nesburg Art Gallery (JAG). This event will be a unique opportunity to experience the talent and energy of the artists at Artist Proof Studio as well as other established artists who have supported the studio’s growth over the last 21 years. Artist Proof Studio, a community based printmaking studio, partners with corporates, patrons, foundations, artists and individuals to create an environment in which talented young artists are offered the space and opportunity to reach their full potential. Editions of historic and current Artist Proof Studio artists will be showcased in 18 uniquely curated spaces within the Johannesburg Art gallery.The exhibition will include the works of Philemon Hlungwane, Nelson Makamo, Lehlogonolo Mashaba, Lucas Nkgweng, Kim Berman and many emerging talents. New releases of edi-tions from collaborating artists include William Kentridge, Diane Victor, Wim Botha, Norman Catherine, Paul Edmunds, Gerhard Marx, Colbert Mashile, Chris Diedericks, Kudzanai Chiurai and others. Please join us on Sunday the 6th May for a public lecture by William Kentridge at 2pm, followed by the opening of the exhibition by Sibongile Khumalo. APS looks forward to hosting members of the public at various events during the exhibition and will hold a series of lectures, printmaking demonstrations, and walkabouts during the month of May at the Johannesburg Art gallery and at Artist Proof Studio. There will be regular updates on the website: www.artistproofstudio.co.za or for more info contact Tiny at [email protected] or Noli at [email protected].

[William Kentridge was in Residence at Harvard University during March and April while delivering “Six Drawing Lessons,” the Charles Eliot Norton lectures for 2012. The title of the interview is drawn from the third of the remarkable series of lecture-performances. Kentridge first came to Artist Proof Studio in 1997 to create etchings for the Emandulo (In the Beginning) book/portfolio project, organized by Kim Berman and New York-based artist Robbin Ami Silverberg. His subsequent projects have all involved linotype.]After graduating from Wits, I worked at the Johannesburg Art Foundation, one of the first multi-racial art schools in the country. One of the things I did there was to teach etching. So I believe in supporting Artist Proof Studio as a school. Printmaking has been a very central art form in South Africa, particularly among black artists, and linocut has been favored because it is cheap and accessible. Artist Proof Studio fits into a tradition of printmaking schools in South Africa that were not only aesthetic projects, but had a definite project of poverty alleviation. But it is also a great printmaking facility. I have a purely selfish interest in good master printers being available, and feeling good about the institution both being a school that prints not only student work but work by artists who are past being students.My sense is that what Kim has done with Artist Proof Studio is completely remarkable in both establishing it and keeping it running, and maintaining an openness and pleasure in the project.In 2003, I created large linocuts, Walking Man and Telephone Lady, as part of an exhibit organized by Clive van den Berg at Wits. The plates were printed by Osiah Masekoameng at Artist Proof, but half way through there was the calamitous fire, and so the edition was never completed. [In 2010, when I was asked to make prints for a fund-raiser for bursaries for Artist Proof Studio], I came back to linocut after not having done it for many years. In fact the very first prints I made were linocuts, done when I was in high school. There have been several cases where prints have been done as a benefit to help some institution. Even though it starts from an external pressure, it has happened on more than one occasion that the image that emerged is one of the better prints I’ve done. With the print, Eight Figures, I had been working on a commission for a mosaic in Naples, and it was the same terrain. So it was very much about making a rough drawing and finding the image in the process of cutting. All the deci-sions about the lines and negative spaces were worked out on the block itself. But I could not believe how long the cutting took. So afterwards I decided I would never again cut a linocut that size. I could hardly move the palm of my hand from pushing the cutting tool!The third set of linocuts, being worked on now, is a different approach to linocut. It’s a series of ink drawings on paper, transferred to a lino block. Then with the greatest skill possible, the ink drawing is cut out of the block so that you have the transformation of the brush into a different material—a sort of anti-linocut!. There are now about 70 to 80 small linos, of which 24 (the Colour Chart linos) were done at Artist Proof Studio. There is an enormous visible difference between those cut at Artist Proof Studio and those printed elsewhere. The ones done at Artist Proof Studio are more interpretative, but I am completely happy to see these different things.[Colour Chart I and II (each a composite of 12 small linocuts) will be shown in the exhibition “Coming of Age: Artist Proof Studio at 21”, opening May 6 at the Johannesburg Art Gallery.]

“Viva Linocut Viva!” Observations on Working with Artist Proof Studio Interview with William Kentridge Cambridge Massachusetts, USA, March 22, 2012

Reflections Continued The ‘Reclaiming Lives’ project led logically to internships with organizations such as Men As Partners and Sonke Gender Justice. This project marked a new phase for the Paper Prayers HIV awareness campaign that was started in 1997 into an active advocacy programme involving student and staff in engagement. APS is strengthened by an active Board of Directors , patrons, corporate and private partners in developing a sustainable organizational strategy that is no longer dependent on donor funding, but on producing and marketing excellence in printmaking. Our Education Unit is sustained by exchange of stu-dent artwork with scholarship funding from corporate patrons. The APS Professional print studio and gallery invite established and emerging artists to co-publish editions of prints which we market to galleries, and public and private collections. In this way APS has been successful in building new careers and strengthening the South African cultural industries through skilled graduates. Looking back at the history of Artist Proof Studio, I am proud of the strength the organiza-tion has shown over the years, its ability to continuously adapt to new challenges, and to grow and diversify in ways that preserve the founding ideal of a democratic, community-based institution. Today, Artist Proof Studio has a three-year certificate program that is training over 100 students, a Pro-Shop where APS master printers edition work for some of South Africa’s most prominent artists, and a range of outreach programs that engage the members as artist-citizens. It boasts graduates who are among the rising stars of the South African art world. The Coming of Age celebrating 21 years of printmaking at JAG provides the opportunity for the new generation of artists to lead the way toward the future for Artist Proof Studio.


Over the past 27 years Caversham’s focus has been on professional collabora-tion, education and development. Individual printmaking projects are undertaken whilst local and international residencies provide opportunities for groups to work together. Specialist workshops are run as a forum for sharing print and bookmak-ing skills and developing mentorship. Caversham has a strong commitment to community art development through its Masabelaneni Network. The five rural

and peri-urban CreACTive Centres with links to schools, run annual workshop programmes which include print and digital arts. These have provided a source for participation by visiting artists. Accommodation: 2 x Two Bedroom self catering cottages Location: Caversham is situated in the rural midlands of KZN and as such, offers a quiet, focussed environment for creative engagement. The studio is housed in a converted 19th Century Methodist chapel.

The Artists’ Press is a professional print studio which focusses on hand lithography and monoprinting. Established over twenty years ago we are com-mitted to excellence in printmaking and collaboration and to living and working sustainably. Artists are invited to work on prints with us which we then publish. The Artists’ Press is in a beautiful valley in a rural area near White River in Mpumalanga. Artists and visitors are accommodated in the comfortable guest-house, a converted farm house. Twice a year we run a monoprint workshop where a maximum of six people work with two master printers to create prints which are theirs to take home at the end of the workshop.
