Walter Whall Battiss (South African 1906-1982) MARABARABA silkscreen, signed, numbered 2/30 and inscribed with the title in pencil in the margin Carman, J. & Isaac, S., Walter Battiss: Gentle Anarchist, Standard Bank Gallery, Johannesburg, p. 39 Siebrits, W. Walter Battiss: I Invented Myself, The Ampersand Foundation, Johannesburg, p. 137 sheet size: 43 by 59cm Marabaraba is a traditional South African board game, originally popular amongst shepherds, that is now played around the world. In this work Battiss recreates the board that the player’s pieces (often called ‘cows’) travel around, but has added vibrant colours and geometric patterning. It was perhaps inspired by the artist’s regular visits to the Rorke’s Drift Art and Craft Centre in Kwa-Zulu Natal during the early 1970s.
