About the Item

Esther Mahlangu, Ndebele Village, 1998, Acrilico su tela montato su tavola di legno, Munita di cornice originale proveniente da Pretoria, Sud Africa, cm 58 x 78, Firmata e datata Esther Mahlangu 10-04-1998 in basso a sinistra. Work from a private collection, Italy. The piece is accompanied by a certification of authenticity, issued by the gallery. As the piece travels from Italy, please note that export paperwork takes a minimum of one week from purchase to complete. One of South Africa’s most renowned artists, Esther Mahlangu paints vibrant geometric works based on traditional Ndebele designs. Growing up in the Ndebele community, she honed her line work while painting houses, a customarily female task. Mahlangu's iconic abstractions attracted international attention after his inclusion in the 1989 Centre Pompidou group exhibition "Magiciens de la Terre (Maghiens of the Earth)," where he painted a replica of his house in front of visitors. Two years later, she was the first woman and the first African artist to be commissioned to paint a BMW Art Car. Mahlangu has also collaborated with brands as diverse as Belvedere, British Airways, and Rolls-Royce, and his works can be found in the collections of celebrities such as John Legend, Oprah Winfrey, Trevor Noah, and Swizz Beatz. She still lives in South Africa’s Mpumalanga province, where she teaches Ndebele painting and beadwork to young artists.

Maurus is not of Makua origin, but is Mwera; his compositions do not relate to animism, but rather he embraces African pop. His work deals with crowds, gathering with large, wide eyes in endless markets, hospital wards, and city beaches. It applies a remarkable sense of noise, frenzy and color to embody the soul and ecstatic energy of large African cities. Maurus Malikita...
