Wonderful to be at the opening of the Old Town House which had been closed due to an electrical blaze 10 years ago. Loved this self-portrait by Catharina van Hemessen, in which she represents herself, aged twenty in the act of painting (one of the earliest such portraits by a woman artist).

Annual Open Book Festival . Some really important discussions taking place. And so delighted to see my friend and graffiti artist Mak1one promoting visual art and literacy. The discussion on Gaza and responses from the outside a glimmer of hope (using Soith Africa as an example).

Lucas Sithole. Born on 15 November 1931, in Springs, Transvaal, Republic of South Africa; he died on 8 May 1994, in Pongola Transvaal, Republic of South Africa. Mainly sculpture in indigenous woods. At Norval. Such pathos in his works.
