Patrick Schols: modern 'Wunderkammer' cabinets
The Dutch sculptor/furniture-maker Patrick Schols is showing six of his one-off pieces at our Stellenbosch gallery - his first exhibition outside Europe. His immaculately crafted pieces are characterised by their organic sculptural form with layers of meaning unfolding as doors or drawers open.
"… my cabinet-making has succeeded when all the elements match each other so perfectly that they form one shape, one organic entity …" (Patrick Schols, April 2012)

Ruan Hoffmann: Clay 'paintings'
A selected group of Ruan Hoffmann's quirky, funny and provocative glazed ceramic plates are now on view at our Stellenbosch gallery, 14b Bird Street.
"Hoffmann’s words appeal to the desperate romantic in us, while graphic swirls, golden teardrops, and painterly swoons lend a suitably operatic quality to his aesthetic. The fragility of his medium could not be more apt." (Alexandra Dodd, Frank, rude or improper in Ceramic Review (UK) Sept/Oct 2011)
