19/05/2008 Insight into life & work of Cecil Skotnes - walkabout

On Sunday 8 June at 11:00, the Friends of the South African National Gallery present a walkabout of the current exhibition ‘Cecil Skotnes: A private view’.

Skotnes has many strings to his bow and is admired as much for his artwork as for his role in art education and generosity towards young local artists. A prolific artist, his works on view include drawings, cartoons, watercolours, prints and works of art on paper, representing the more intimate side of his extensive production.

Also on view are letters, collected documents, personal memorabilia and items from his home and studio.

The walkabout is presented by Pippa Skotnes and Joe Dolby and costs R40 for Friends, R60 for guests and R20 for students.

Enquiries: Lizzie 021 467 4662/0 (Tue-Thu 10:00-14:00)
