		<description><![CDATA[Stellenbosch Triennale takes great pleasure in announcing the first 20 participating artists for its inaugural edition, taking place from 11 February to 30 April 2020 at destinations in Stellenbosch. The list reads like a who’s who of contemporary art from African, now. Given the status of the 20 artists on the official selection of the Triennale, the event promises to be one of distinction and inspiration, quite unlike anything that Stellenbosch has seen before. The curator’s exhibition curated by Chief Curator Khanyisile Mbongwa with Triennale curator: Bernard Akoi-Jackson draws from the Triennale’s overarching theme Tomorrow There will Be More of Us. The exhibition will present contemporary art from African in a critical dialogue with the society that fosters and exhibits it. The list of African artists selected by Mbongwa, with her co-curators, informs the major theme. Artists are set to present works that investigate the possibility of healing through engaging with the divided past, the collective present and imagined futures. Responding to the nature of the collective destined for the curator’s exhibition, Mbongwa says, “African creatives confront us with what is possible for a renewal to happen utilising art as a lens, a course correction, a stimuli around curiosity and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Stellenbosch Triennale, happening in venues across the historic town from 11 February to 30 April 2020, draws in the continent’s important curators to present programmes interlocking with and at many levels of artistic achievement. On The Cusp is not just an exhibition of emergent artistic or related practices, but presents the work of a number of exciting new artists within the larger Stellenbosch Triennale. Conceptually, On The Cusp references the idea of the accumulated potential that an individual or generation possesses at a crucial interval of time &#8211; just before the onset of something great. The exhibition is one of the Triennale’s identifying exhibitions – a core part of the programme, initiated by Chief Curator Khanyisile Mbongwa. Curated by contemporary Ghanaian curator, artist and writer Bernard Akoi-Jackson, On The Cusp takes into account future possibilities by engaging with new artists set to innovate in the African scene to come, as well as on the world stage. The exhibition follows the ethos of the Triennale as it ventures beyond the confines of the traditional, exposing fresh practices &#8212; aesthetic, conceptual, critical or material. Akoi-Jackson has upon the advice of a network of colleague practitioners across the continent, selected ten African [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Stellenbosch Triennale 2020, brainchild of the Stellenbosch Outdoor Sculpture Trust, takes place from 11 February to 30 April 2020 and will present a remarkable collection of artistic talents to construct an event in which contemporary African art will hold a critical dialogue with the society that fosters and exhibits it. The theme Tomorrow There Will Be More of Us, which was conceived by Chief Curator and Artistic Director Khanyisile Mbongwa, runs as a thread throughout the seven multidisciplinary platforms. All will provide meeting points for engagement with the divided past, the collective present and imagined futures. The curator’s exhibition has been conceived by Mbongwa, with co-curator Bernard Akoi-Jackson. It will feature 20 multidisciplinary artists, from a range of African countries. On the list, selected by the curatorial team, are some of the world’s most revered artists whose works are situated at the borderline between avant-garde and mainstream: Conceptualist and sculptor Ibrahim Mahama (Ghana), Visual artist Sethembile Msezane (South Africa) and filmmaker Kivu Ruhorahoza (Rwanda) &#8211; to name a few. Mbongwa sees the theme, and participants, as being part of a unfolding narrative. “For me, Tomorrow There Will Be More of Us is about imagining (and creating) common sustainable futures [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Stellenbosch Triennale, brainchild of the Stellenbosch Outdoor Sculpture Trust, takes place from 11 February to 30 April 2020 in a location renowned for its halls of academia and historical vineyards. The upcoming international showcase, extraordinary in terms of international reach and extent of art on show, will place creativity in critical dialogue with the society that fosters and exhibits it. The theme Tomorrow There Will Be More of Us informs the further seven multidisciplinary platforms &#8211; that provide meeting points for engagement with the divided past, the collective present and imagined futures. The Curators’ Exhibition compiled by Chief Curator Khanyisile Mbongwa, with Triennale co-curator: Bernard Akoi-Jackson will feature 20 artists from a range of African countries, and will interpret the theme. The multidisciplinary art exhibition situated inside The Woodmill and on the surrounding precinct will provide a gateway where visitors will be introduced to the Triennale’s other exhibitions and installations. According to Chief Curator Mbongwa, “African creatives confront us with what is possible for a renewal to happen utilising art as a lens, a course correction, a stimulus around curiosity and imagination. Through the Triennale, we bring work from the continent to the southernmost tip as an intersection of [...]]]></description>
