These art works and their drawing details remain indelibly embedded in the author’s visual memory as articulate responses in political registers to the questions raised, while generating a sense of hope.Hierdie artikel poog om the unieke atmosfeer en skaal van die Venesiese Biennale oor te dra; om die aandag te vestig op vier stelle vrae wat in die kollig gebring is deur die 2011 geleentheid; en om te fokus op enkele projekte (insluitend hul tekeningbesonderhede) wat daar uitgestal was. Hierdie kunswerke en hul tekeningbesonderhede het onuitwisbaar deel geword van die skrywer se visuele geheue as politiese teensang wat sprekend reageer op die vrae gestel, terwyl die werke terselfdertyd ’n sin van hoop kon genereer10 pagesPDFenArt Historical Work Group of South AfricaDrawingsVenice BiennaleVenice (Italy) -- ExhibitionsArt -- Italy -- Venice -- ExhibitionsDrawing -- Italy -- Venice -- ExhibitionsArticle
