The company publish a magazine called I-Jusi because they wanted to produce designs with African elements that met international standards. He wanted to satisfy the customers who wanted his creative designs and then, without any intention, started the studio. His main inspiration comes from his own country (South Africa) and the word around him. His clients influence his creativity and therefore he draws inspiration from them also.

He came up with the concept to create and show proudly South African designs that are at an international standard. It was never about the money, it was because of pure passion he created the magazine. He never wanted to commercialize the magazine so it was limited to 500 copies printed.He is proudly South African and he strived to show the world that South Africa is one of the most creative countries in the world.

    Everyday Use brought the readers an insightful dimension in seeing African’s art - quilt. As Quilts are expensive handmade artwork, the public normally neglects the meanings they carry and sees them as something “beautifully crafted” and “classy”. Sadly, in Everyday Use, Walker hinted that some Africans were also ignorant about the significances of quilts.…

    Dutch graphic designer Jan van Toorn is known for his radical ideas about what the function of design should be, and what qualities designers should possess and promote with their designs. Van Toorn’s distinctive style is messy, peculiar, and deeply interwoven with political and cultural messages, unapologetic with their intent to force critical thinking upon viewers. Van Toorn advocates design which encourages the viewer to reach their own conclusions, insisting that designers shouldn’t function as objective bystanders, but instead, designers have an important contribution to make. Design is a form of visual journalism and van Toorn urges designers to take responsibility for their role as “journalists.” Van Toorn begins his argument by stating that all professions contain a certain level of schizophrenia––inescapable contradictions, including graphic design, which must balance the interest of the public with the interests of the client and the general expectations of the media profession. To survive, design must “strive to neutralize these inherent conflicts of interest by developing a mediating concept aimed at consensus [....] to accepting the world image of the established order as the context for its own action.” (Page 102, first paragraph)…

    Throughout the course of African history there has been a significance contribution to the art of the different cultures. After reading and studying about various regions and cultures the similarities and differences all seem to link to a fascinating group of people. Exploring different groups of objects and cultures broadened my knowledge of particular traditions within the African culture. Visiting an actual exhibition contributed to a deeper level of understanding with the visual aids in close reach at the museum. I visited the Brooklyn Museum‘s African art exhibition and was very impressed and pleased with my findings. The group of objects that I focused on were made of the same material, and also derived from Mali. Two of the pieces I am focusing on are from the same culture, and the other is from a different ethnic groups.…

    Born 1956 in Montagu, a small town 150 km from Cape Town, South Africa, Willie Bester is a South African artist famous for his installations made of found objects. Since early years, his talent could be easily observed: when other boys made basic wire cars, his cars were elaborated and decorated. He began to paint at the age of seven. However, his father was a Xhosa and his mother was classified as a Colored according to the apartheid system of the time. When he was 10 years old, his family was forcibly removed in accordance with the Group Areas Act. Bester soon had to leave school to help the family economically. In his late teens, Bester, like many township and rural youth in similar situations, joined the South African Defense Force. He spent a year there and another in a military camp for unemployed black youth. The experiences of raw and naked racism and the war were important influences to his future career. At the age of 30, Bester returned to the childhood interest of art. The Community Arts Project (CAP) in District Six gathered a community of socially committed artists he began to associate with. He used his art to express a political conscience and became active in the anti-apartheid movement. In the 80’s, Bester became gradually more successful and well known both nationally and internationally. He made his professional debut in 1991 and now lives and works in Kuilsrivier, a suburban area in Cape Town. Bester’s works are collages assembled from scraps and junk – such as shoes, bones, tins, newspaper clippings, and metal pieces from flea markets, townships, and scrap yards combined with the use of oil paints and photographs. The themes of his artworks stem from the political issues of the time they were created: During the Apartheid, forced removals and brutalization of society, today, crime, greed, poverty and corruption. "People have built up a resistance to anything that addresses the psyche of…
