Imagining Beauty

A beautiful exhibition at the Iziko Museum


An installation of the work of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Awards winning designers - Black Coffee, Darkie and Maya Prass - and others shown in Berlin last year is central to the exhibition.

Included are works of superb southern African beadwork, Michael Kra’s collaboration with San artists and the edgy designs of Beloved Beads - a fusion of the best British and African designs.

A rare Rwandan crown that was worn by the royalty of the Great Lakes region shortly before its collapse - as depicted in Irma Stern’s famous portrait of Queen Gicanda in 1942 - is also on view.

Prices are R15p/p for adults |  R5p/p for pensioners, scholars &  students |  Free for children under 16
