SUMMARY:Out of the Icebox – Sanlam Celebrates 60 Years of Art Collecting with Rarely Seen Masterpieces
DESCRIPTION:Sanlam Opens Its Vaults for a Celebratory 60-Year Art Retrospective \n\n\n\nIn a momentous tribute to six decades of artistic patronage\, Sanlam is lifting the curtain on one of South Africa’s most distinguished corporate art collections. From 1 June to 29 August 2025\, the Sanlam Art Gallery in Bellville will host two major exhibitions — Out of the Icebox and Manifesto — to mark the 60th anniversary of the Sanlam Art Collection. \n\n\n\nBoasting over 2\,000 works spanning from 1874 to the present day\, the Sanlam Art Collection is now valued at an impressive R210 million. What began in 1965 as a humble initiative to decorate corporate offices has evolved into a vital archive of South Africa’s visual art heritage. \n\n\n\nOut of the Icebox: A Journey Through Six Decades of Collecting \n\n\n\nThe headline exhibition\, Out of the Icebox\, takes visitors on a rich journey through time\, showcasing 90 works acquired from 1965 to today. The aptly titled show refers to “defrosting” artworks that have been stored away or hidden in office corridors — offering the public a rare opportunity to encounter important yet rarely seen pieces. \n\n\n\nStefan Hundt\, Curator of the Sanlam Art Collection\n\n\n\nThis curated selection reads like a who’s who of South African art history\, featuring icons such as: \n\n\n\n\nIrma Stern\, Gerard Sekoto\, Walter Battiss\, Maggie Laubser\n\n\n\nGerard Bhengu\, David Koloane\, Alexis Preller\, Simon Lekgetho\n\n\n\nContemporary artists like Blessing Ngobeni\, Frans Thoka\, and Franz Asha Zero\n\n\n\n\n\n“Out of the Icebox is more than a retrospective — it’s a celebration of South African creativity and a mirror to our collective history\,” . \nsays Stefan Hundt\, Curator of the Sanlam Art Collection\n\n\n\nManifesto: Art in the Age of Protest \n\n\n\nRunning parallel to Out of the Icebox\, the second exhibition\, Manifesto\, is a compact but emotionally resonant showcase. Featuring 18 impactful works\, the exhibition focuses on themes of protest\, human rights\, and democracy\, offering a bold reflection on South Africa’s journey from apartheid to the present. \n\n\n\nInstalled to coincide with Human Rights Day\, Freedom Day\, and Youth Day\, Manifesto challenges viewers to confront historical injustice and contemplate the socio-political currents shaping the country today. \n\n\n\nBuilding a Cultural Legacy \n\n\n\nSanlam’s commitment to the arts was never merely aesthetic. Established during a period of political and cultural isolation in 1965\, the collection was a strategic act of corporate citizenship\, supporting artists whose voices were often sidelined. From its inception\, an independent advisory committee curated the works — a decision that cemented the collection’s credibility and depth. \n\n\n\nAs Hundt notes\, “Our gallery is not just a space to show art — it’s a space to reflect\, to engage\, and to confront the realities artists explore.” \n\n\n\nWith dedicated galleries in Bellville and Sandton\, Sanlam continues to make space for bold\, complex\, and often challenging works that push beyond the confines of traditional corporate collections. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA Cultural Treasure for the Nation \n\n\n\nWhile the collection’s market value exceeds R210 million\, Hundt insists that its cultural value is immeasurable. “Like the Medicis of Renaissance Florence\, Sanlam’s patronage leaves a permanent imprint on South Africa’s cultural history. These works are part of our national soul.” \n\n\n\nVisitors to the exhibition will come away with a renewed appreciation for the depth\, diversity\, and global relevance of South African art.  \n\n\n\n\n“Our artists can hold their own on any stage in the world. This exhibition is proof.” \nsays Hundt\n\n\n\nPlan Your Visit \n\n\n\n\n🎟️ Admission: Free to the public\n\n\n\n🗣️ Guided Tours: Available on request\n\n✉️ Email: sanlamart@sanlam.co.za\n\n\n\n📞 Phone: 021 947 3359\n\n\n\n📱 WhatsApp: 083 457 2699\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhether you’re an art aficionado or simply curious about South Africa’s visual heritage\, Out of the Icebox and Manifesto promise a powerful\, thought-provoking celebration of the country’s artistic legacy — and a rare glimpse into works that have shaped\, mirrored\, and challenged the nation for six decades.

SUMMARY:Isigqi Album Launch
DESCRIPTION:Sibusiso “Mash” Mashiloane Announces Release of Eighth Album Isigqi \n\n\n\n\n\nAcclaimed South African pianist\, composer\, and scholar Sibusiso “Mash” Mashiloane is poised to release his much-anticipated eighth album\, Isigqi\, on 30 May 2025 across all major digital platforms. This release will be celebrated with a special live launch concert on 1 June 2025 at The Chairman in Durban\, featuring an ensemble of prominent South African musicians. \n\n\n\nIsigqi: A Rhythmic Tribute to Heritage and Home \n\n\n\nIsigqi — meaning “the beat” in isiZulu — is a heartfelt homage to township rhythms\, intergenerational wisdom\, and the enduring spirit of community. The album is a sonic reflection of Mashiloane’s personal and professional evolution\, deeply inspired by mentors\, cultural custodians\, and the rich heritage of South African jazz. \n\n\n\nPhoto By Siya Meyiwa\n\n\n\nThe project was recorded live at the iconic bird’s eye jazz club in Basel\, Switzerland\, during Mashiloane’s 2024 residency supported by Pro Helvetia. For the session\, he collaborated with a Swiss ensemble\, infusing his African-rooted compositions with a global jazz sensibility. \n\n\n\nA Night of Sonic Storytelling in Durban \n\n\n\nThe Isigqi launch event at The Chairman will feature a powerhouse line-up\, including: \n\n\n\n\nDalisu Ndlazi (bass)\n\n\n\nRiley Giandhari (drums)\n\n\n\nSiyalo Zulu (trombone)\n\n\n\n\nAudiences can expect an immersive evening guided by African philosophies of Ubuntu\, where emotion\, rhythm\, and memory converge in Mashiloane’s signature sound. \n\n\n\nPhoto By Siya Meyiwa\n\n\n\nA Doctorate and a Milestone \n\n\n\nAdding to this celebratory moment\, May 2025 also marks Mashiloane’s doctoral graduation from the University of KwaZulu-Natal. His academic work explored the formation of a local jazz identity\, highlighting how South African musicians channel their cultural heritage through jazz as a medium. \n\n\n\n\n“Isigqi is a culmination of many things: my personal journey\, my academic reflections\, and my tribute to those who walked before me. It’s about recognising how music carries memory\, identity\, and connection.” \n\n\n\n\nUKZN praised his doctoral recitals and thesis as “musical awakenings\,” where jazz becomes a language deeply rooted in local expression\, shaped by accent\, dialect\, and lived experience. \n\n\n\nReinforcing a South African Jazz Identity \n\n\n\nHaving already secured multiple awards and critical acclaim\, Isigqi solidifies Mashiloane’s role as a leading voice in the evolution of South African jazz — one deeply rooted in ancestral memory\, community\, and rhythmic complexity. \n\n\n\nStay tuned to Isigqi — where rhythm becomes a bridge between generations\, and jazz speaks in the language of home. \n\n\n\nPhoto By Siya Meyiwa

SUMMARY:What the Fook? A Landmark Strauss & Co Auction Celebrates Walter Battiss’s Inspired Life
DESCRIPTION:Strauss & Co is proud to announce What the Fook? The Life and Work of Walter Battiss\, a historic and unprecedented single-artist auction dedicated to the legacy of one of South Africa’s most imaginative and influential modernists. Running online from 12 to 30 June 2025\, the auction is a tribute to Walter Battiss (1906–1982)\, spotlighting over four decades of his work in painting\, printmaking\, and drawing. \n\n\n\n\n“What the Fook? celebrates the life and work of Walter Battiss\, a protean and prolific figure in the story of twentieth-century South African art. His optimism\, innovation\, and commitment to creative freedom continue to resonate powerfully.” \nsays Leigh Leyde\, Head of Sale\, Strauss & Co\n\n\n\nA Visionary Beyond His Time \n\n\n\nBattiss was more than an artist — he was a teacher\, archaeologist\, critic\, and founder of the New Group in 1938\, a progressive collective that redefined the boundaries of South African art. But it was his creation of Fook Island in the 1970s — a whimsical imaginary world with its own culture\, language\, and art — that defined him as a true artistic pioneer. \n\n\n\nWalter Battiss; Wartrail\, Barkly East C.P.\n\n\n\nHighlights from the Auction \n\n\n\nThe auction showcases important pieces from Battiss’s Pretoria period and beyond\, many sourced from prestigious private collections including those of art historian Murray Schoonraad and composer Robert Schröder\, both former students of the artist. \n\n\n\nWalter Battiss; The Early Men and Women (Cave)\n\n\n\nKey works include: \n\n\n\n\nThe Spirit of Africa (c.1960): A powerful figural diptych\, estimate R900 000 – R1.2 million.\n\n\n\nNdebele Village / Abstract African Figures: A vibrant double-sided piece\, estimate R150 000 – R200 000.\n\n\n\nThe Early Men and Women (Cave): Painted in 1938\, reflecting Battiss’s shift towards indigenous visual traditions\, estimate R15 000 – R20 000.\n\n\n\nWartrail\, Barkly East: A striking watercolour from the Schoonraad Collection\, estimate R30 000 – R50 000.\n\n\n\nBird Masks: Colour screenprint\, signed and numbered\, estimate R8 000 – R12 000.\n\n\n\nOrgy 4: A provocative piece exploring morality and freedom\, estimate R20 000 – R30 000.\n\n\n\n\nBattiss’s devotion to documenting ancient Southern African rock art and his explorations into the abstract reveal a deep intellectual commitment to art and archaeology. His works are not only visually engaging but culturally and historically profound. \n\n\n\nWalter Battiss; Ndebele Village (recto); Abstract African Figures (verso)\n\n\n\nExhibition Details \n\n\n\nWhat the Fook? is on view from 9 to 24 June 2025 at Strauss & Co\, with select dates available by appointment only.
