112 88 Jo Ractliffe SOUTH AFRICAN 1961– Johannesburg (Yizo Yizo) edition 1/3 panoramic C print 50 by 200 cm R45 000 – 60 000 LITERATURE cf. Sophie Perryer (ed.) (2004) 10 Years, 100 Artists: Art in a Democratic South Africa, Cape Town: Bell-Roberts in association with Struik. Similar examples illustrated on pages 308 and 309. ‘Since Jo Ractliffe’s métier and media have to do with looking – looking at, looking through, getting others to look differently at what she represents to be looked at – it’s logical that the gaze itself becomes subject to critical enquiry in terms of the symbolic capital of the one who looks, and the one who is looked at.’ Brenda Atkinson (ed.) (2002) Jo Ractliffe: Artist’s Book , Taxi-001, Johannesburg: David Krut. Page 68.
