Local Art • 1995 • III
The first national gay and lesbian art exhibition, Gay Rights Rites Re-writes, curated by Joan Bellis and Wessel van Huyssteen opens in Cape Town and travels to Bloemfontein and Johannesburg.
An entry from the timeline included in the exhibition Dada South? Experimentation, Radicalism and Resistance (2009–2010) at the Iziko National Gallery, which proposed connections between art production in South Africa and abroad against the social and political contexts that framed them. A revised version of this timeline was later featured in the retroactive Flight Paths (2011) exhibition guide commissioned by Clare Butcher.
