Catch What We Talk About When We Talk About Love, an exhibition about love in all its maddening complexity — raw, sexy, sometimes embarrassing, often heartbreaking and necessarily flawed and contradictory.
Photographer Pieter Hugo slyly inverts his usual exploration of “the other” and presents his closest friends in a series of provocative “anti-portraits”. Anton Kannemeyer engages raw desire in his starkly unambiguous erotic etchings. Filmmaker Zina Saro-Wiwa explores the complexity of public and private space in a small, heartbreaking video work. Other featured artists include Dineo Seshee Bopape, Wim Botha, Penny Siopis, Francis Alÿs, Meschac Gaba, Ernesto Neto, Claudette Schreuders, Nicholas Hlobo, Yiadom-Boakye, Igshaan Adams, Deborah Poynton, Viviane Sassen and Simon Gush.
