Welgemeend August Art Month - 2019

61 RICHARD MUDARIKI ZIMBABWE 1985 - Kaapstad 2018 signed oil on canvas on board 145 x 140 cm Kilbourn Collection “The artist was invited to be an adjudicator for the 2018 Cape Malay Choir Grand Finale in Belville. This was such a potent and enriching experience for the artist such that he decided to paint the experience. The Cape Malay festivities are an important part of the heritage of the city and have a deep history. This painting at the same time depicts the troubles in the city mayoral office, depicted here as the engine of the city.” Richard Mudariki
