The Art of Life in South Africa is the story of the students, teachers, art, and politics that circulated through a small school, housed in a remote former mission station. It is the story of a community that made its way through the travails of white supremacist South Africa and demonstrates how the art they made together became the art of their lives. The Art of Life in South Africa proposes a radical reframing of apartheid era South African history. Against the dominant narrative of apartheid oppression and black resistance, as well as recent scholarship that explores violence, criminality and the hopeless entanglements of the apartheid state, this book focuses instead on a small group's efforts to fashion more fulfilling lives for themselves and their community through the ironic medium of the apartheid-era school. There is no book like this in South African historiography. Lushly illustrated and poetically written, it gives us fully formed lives that offer remarkable insights into the now cliched experience of black life under segregation and apartheid. 410 0$aNew African histories series. 606 $aArt teachers$xTraining of$zSouth Africa 606 $aArt$xStudy and teaching$zSouth Africa 606 $aBlack people$zSouth Africa$xSocial conditions$y20th century 607 $aSouth Africa$2fast 615 0$aArt teachers$xTraining of 615 0$aArt$xStudy and teaching 615 0$aBlack people$xSocial conditions 676 $a707.1068 700 $aMagaziner$b Daniel R.$0992860 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910798896503321 996 $aThe art of life in South Africa$93732435 997 $aUNINA
