Cite Internationale des Arts is an acclaimed artist-in-residence program established in 1965, which attracts practicing artists from all over the world. Verster participated in a total of five residencies at the Parisian studios between 1985 and 1995, with the first being awarded by the South African National Association for Visual Arts (SANAVA)1. This portfolio consists of scenes of the artist’s friends and their belongings, as well as portraits of well-known artists and writers, such as Pablo Picasso and Oscar Wilde. The prints feature monochrome linework that denotes a simplistic elegance, reminiscent of Henri Matisse. The works are printed on ivory Fabriano Rosapina paper, and published by Caversham Press in Howick, KwaZulu Natal. Verster’s work has appeared in multiple exhibitions across the world, including London, Hong Kong and Germany. He has also been awarded two retrospectives at the Durban Art Gallery, cementing his position as a key figure in the South African art scene2. 1 Cite Internationale des Artes, correspondence, April 30, 2019. 2 Kwazulu Natal Society of Arts, “Andrew Versterâ€- LD

Sue (Susan Mary) Williamson (South African 1941-) MIRIAM MAKEBA, from A FEW SOUTH AFRICANS signed, dated and editioned 23/35 in pencil in the margin photoetching, silkscreen and collage on paper sheet size: 80 by 61cm Sue Williamson is a renowned figure in the South African and international art scene, and has exhibited in multiple institutions, biennales and solo shows across the world. Her work, spanning across many media, has most recently been featured at the Zeitz MOCAA, Cape Town, The National Museum for Women in the Arts, USA, and the Kochi Biennale, India1. ‘A Few South Africans’ (1983-88) is a series which the artist notes, “attempted to make visible the history of women involved in the struggle for freedom [against apartheid]... The work asks questions about civic (and representational) duty and memorialisation.†Wiliamson continues, “An important part of the history of this series is that they were printed as postcards, in order to make the images widely accessible to the general public.â€2 This lot features a portrait of Mariam Makeba. The Johannesburg songstress was banned from South Africa in 1960 and her passport withdrawn when she provided the United Nations with evidence against the oppression occurring in South Africa3. Annie Salinga, whose portrait by Williamson is featured in an additional lot, is accompanied by a poster-size autobiographical text. The statement frames Salinga as a staunch activist who vowed never to use an apartheid-issued identity pass (or ‘dompas’) which would dictate where she could live and work. The central portrait is a photo-etching, alongside other techniques such as aquatint and hardground. Some of the imagery on the printed frames is derived from African textiles with additional smaller images added. 1 Goodman Gallery, “Sue Williamson.†2 Goodman Gallery, “Sue Williamson (A Few South Africans artist statement).†3 Sue-Williamson.com, “Miriam Makeba – A Few South Africans.- LD

William Kentridge (South African 1955-) WOMAN IN SWIMSUIT from DOMESTIC SCENES series signed, dated '79 and editioned AP soft ground etching sheet size: 25 by 20cm This particular work is an artist proof from William Kentridge’s Domestic Scenes series (1979 - 80), which was based on two collaborative theatre productions of which the artist was part, namely ‘Security’ (1979) and ‘Dikhitsheneng’ (1980)1. The latter translates to, “in the kitchensâ€, from which Kentridge has conceptualised scenes featuring rotund, caricature-like domestic workers, placing the etchings on the border of satire. The images draw sharp attention to these domestic contact zones during the apartheid era. This specific print, Women in Swimsuit, depicts a figure performing a handstand, which may be interpreted as an allegory for the performative tricks that domestic workers did, and were requested to do, for their masters. Domestic Scenes (1979 - 80) is one of Kentridge’s earlier print series, which has been printed by the artist himself. The series of approximately 40 images was created at the etching press at Johannesburg Art Foundation. Although, Kentridge admits that he did not complete printing the entire edition as he claims, “…to do thirty prints also seemed like an act of hubris.â€21 Art in Print, “William Kentridge: Drawing Has its Own Memory.â€2 William Kentridge, William Kentridge Prints (Johannesburg: David Krut Publishing, 2006), 26 – 29. - LD
