From Botha’s devastating Butterfly Box and Kentridge’s eerily abandonedStadium to the perpetually discharging pistol of van der Merwe’s Gaste and the #RhodesMustFall reference behind Mudariki’s The Model, is art the most truthful documentation of a nation’s history? And if so, what does Sanlam’s Centennial exhibition say about the transformation of SA? The Curator Stefan Hundt takes visitors on a journey through the last 100 years, with guided tours available by appointment on set dates.  A journey that brings one face-to-face with chapters of colonial hegemony, political repression, a triumphant democracy and the economically unbalanced society that followed.
