Local artists do well
Photo: Ransome Stanley, together with Mary Sibande, has been rewarded for his hard work
This art competition was initiated by the UN and a selection of 24 artists from Europe, USA, South America, Asia and South Africa were invited to submit artworks for the new stairwell, atrium and wall in the foyer.
Mary Sibande has the honor of being the only artist from the African continent and one of the few female artists selected to submit a design for the atrium. An international artist of note, Ransome Stanley, who is German by citizenship and has a Nigerian father, is submitting artwork for the wall in the foyer.
Gallery MOMO is proud that these two artists have been recognized for their hard work and dedication to their art. Final artworks will be submitted by the 7th of September, 2010.
