GODS OF WAR: DOGS OF WAR
Sharing this space, the exhibition moves into active discord, with the politics of Apartheid challenging the viewer in 'Dogs of War: Gods of War'. Prior to the first democratic elections in 1994 South African artists actively expressed resistance by ‘breaking rules’ of the Apartheid system through metaphor and chronicle.
