The William Humphreys Art Gallery is delighted to announce that Jonathan van der Walt, a visual artist based in Gqeberha, has been selected as the recipient of the prestigious Artist-In-Residency programme. This residency is dedicated to the memory of the renowned artist Dumisani Mabasa, who was a permanent resident artist at WHAG until his untimely passing.

The 2024 WHAG’s Artist-In-Residency call received a multitude of exceptional applications. However, Jonathan van der Walt’s innovative and compelling approach to sculpture appealed the most to WHAG’s curatorial strategy.

Jonathan joins Yolanda Maartens in the OFM Art Beat.
