A richly illustrated collection combining moving history with stunning contemporary art, South African Art Now is the first book to document the role of art and artists in the evolution of today's post-apartheid South Africa. Artist and author Sue Williamson explores five decades of South African art, from early political art in the 1960s (during the apartheid years) to the thought-provoking works that grabbed the international art market’s interest a generation later. Featuring the work of 90 artists and more than 500 color images, and with an insightful foreword from Nobel laureate Nadine Gordimer, South African Art Now is a valuable resource for collectors, curators, and contemporary art enthusiasts.

 From Library Journal 
The role of art in the liberation struggles of 20th-century Africa has received scant attention from scholars and critics. Yet in a region where the literacy rate is so low, the power of visual images is especially signficant. Williamson has compiled a catalog of South African artists, white and black, whose work speaks to the struggle for freedom and against apartheid. The range of art illustrated includes everything from Western-style easel paintings to public "people's" art in the form of murals, T-shirts, etc. Perhaps most interesting is the artists' commentary, often filled with pain and anger about an unjust and repressive system. Essential for both public and academic libraries.\n- Eugene C. Burt, Seattle

Resistance Art In South Africa

This book has been written in response to the many guardians I hear struggling to groom their dogs. I hope that my experiences can offer techniques to help overcome their grooming related issues. I have focussed mainly on brushing and some basic help for clipping claws, with a little discussion around bathing and drying. I use the techniques in this book to achieve positive outcomes and reduce stress for both myself and the dogs I groom as a professional groomer, and with my own dogs. There are many other positive and effective techniques to explore and new methods are evolving all the time.Some basic canine behaviour is included to help you understand your dog. It is so important that we observe when he is anxious, by taking notice of his body language, in order to learn how we can change the way he views being groomed by taking smaller, more manageable steps. This book will expand your dog behaviour toolbox with some wonderfully simple techniques for less stressful grooming. Easy to apply, you will see significant improvements in the behaviour and wellbeing of your dog whilst you are grooming.
