Author:Paul Duncan [Duncan, Paul]
Language: eng

Tags: An artist’s canvas reflects the face he chooses to show to the world, but the place in which that art is made is seldom revealed. Paul Duncan was given unparalleled access into the homes and lives of fourteen of South Africa’s most revered artists. Over countless mugs of coffee or glasses of wine, he listened and observed as they spoke about their lives, loves and the way they make their art. South African Artists at Home takes the reader into some very private spaces, affording us a glimpse of what the artist goes home to at the end of the day. For some, the work space and home space are irrevocably intertwined. For others, home is a sanctuary. Or perhaps it is the studio that is the sanctuary and home is where ‘real life’ happens. Either way, if you have an interest in art, artists, and the often bizarre way that making art intersects with living life, you’ll find this book intriguing.

‘My library contains information on subjects that interest me. I find books more accessible than technology.’

‘Bernard goes to bed quite early, and I go to bed late. I read when I go to bed. I’ve just been reading an interesting account by a South African who did a turn teaching in China. China interests me. Maybe I’ll read a novel. Daytime reading is newspapers, sometimes on Fridays it’s the Mail & Guardian, and then on Sunday, The Sunday Times with all those horrors and other stuff in it. I read sitting at a desk or table.’
