STELLENBOSCH UNIVERSITY MUSEUM 100 Forward? Forward! Forward - The Stellenbosch University Museum celebrates 100 years of higher education in Africa

T

he Stellenbosch University Museum is inviting emerging and established artists in an open call to participate in this compelling, innovative and thought provoking exhibition.

This upcoming exhibition aims to bring together a collection of 100 artworks, which re-imagines the future of Stellenbosch University and higher education in Africa. An open call is made for artists to submit proposals for artworks that engage with ideas around the future of higher education in the next 100 years (2018 – 2118). Proposed artworks will serve as catalysts for debate and engagement on the future of the university. It will provide a platform for the muchneeded opportunity to talk across boundaries - for artists, practitioners in museums and galleries, scholars in the academy, learners in schools, students at universities, young people and the general public. All creative expressions are welcome including visual artworks, video, installation, 3D, performance, interventions, music and poetry. The Stellenbosch University Museum (formerly known as the Sasol Art Museum) has positioned itself not only as an art museum but as an open space for public programmes, discussions/ lectures, workshops and film screenings.

The museum has unique exhibition spaces. 22
