LUCKY SIBIYA NO.8 "THE NATION MOURNS" WOODCUT
Est: -
Lucky Maldo Sibiya (1942 - 1999) No.8 "The Nation Mourns" Woodcut on Paper. Part of the Umbatha Series which was based on the theatrical play Umabatha by Welcome Msomi. The play portrays historical Zulu events woven around the Shakespearean play Macbeth. Sibiya used both abstract and folk art designs to create a portfolio of 15 woodcuts that were featured in the South African Exhibition in Canberra. Lucky is internationally renowned for his abstract paintings and sculptural carvings. The artist´s fascination with abstraction began from an early age and was further informed by his observation of his father who was a traditional healer. The destruction of Sophiatown during the fifties resulted in Sibiya’s family relocating to Soweto. During his younger years at school in Hammanskraal he already started to experiment with woodcarvings. Shortly before completing his school education at St. Peter´s Seminary, the artist introduced himself to Cecil Skotnes. Skotnes was at this time one of South Africa´s foremost contemporary artists and the head of the Polly Street Art Centre in Johannesburg where he was an avid supporter of young talent. Skotnes was enthusiastic to accept Sibiya as a private pupil and as a result the mentor´s engraved paintings were influential in Sibiya´s decision to paint on carved wood. Artist: Lucky Sibiya Title: No.8 "The Nation Mourns" Medium: Woodcut Circa/Year: 1975 Signature Type: Pencil Signature Location: Lower Right Edition: 7/225 Site Measurement: 22.5x15.75 in.
