Local Art • 2007 • II
The SMAC gallery publishes Kathryn Smith's One Million and Forty-Four Years (and Sixty Three Days). The publication compiles emailed responses to Smith's question of whether or not the notion of the avant-garde is still viable, gathered over a four-week period in 2007.
An entry from the timeline included in the exhibition Dada South? Experimentation, Radicalism and Resistance (2009–2010) at the Iziko National Gallery, which proposed connections between art production in South Africa and abroad against the social and political contexts that framed them. A revised version of this timeline was later featured in the retroactive Flight Paths (2011) exhibition guide commissioned by Clare Butcher.
