Bopape Dumas Muholi

Dineo Bopape, Zanele Muholi and Marlene Dumas at MMKA, Arnhem

This winter, the MMKA combines installations, photographs and videos by the South African artists Dineo Bopape (1981) and Zanele Muholi (1972) with a presentation of work from the year 1980 by Marlene Dumas (1953). The exhibition traces the formal and thematic relationships that emerge, including the use of found material, the sensual pleasure in the processes of collage, the display of the body, and the portrait as a metaphor. Their means of imagining is embedded in sharp critical reflection, making clear that despite the generation gap, this is a strong common source from which all three artists draw.
