FNB VITA CRAFT NOW
1998
FNB
Vita Craft Now is an annual craft event held
in collaboration with the National Crafts Council of South Africa.
Craftspeople from all over South Africa are invited to submit works for
the prestigious exhibitions and prizes in which 10's of 1000's of rands
are awarded.
The aim of the exhibition is to build on uniquely South
African tradition and heritage and to promote public interest and
appreciation in the various areas of the crafts. The selectors encourage the creation of works of fine craftsmanship and
design across all major craft disciplines such as wood, metal, fiber,
glass, recycled materials and more.
On offer is a
single copy of the 1998 awards catalogue, to which Ntombifuthi Magwaza
won the gold for his telephone wire basket. Silver went to Thembi
Nala, daughter of Nesta Nala for her Zulu pot and Andrew Maphanga won
bronze for functional wire worked radio. A merit award went to Ian Garret
for his ceramic pot, as did another to Lynnley Watson for
hers. Over 100 works are shown in full color.
Price: $20.00
plus postage.
