CURRENT EXHIBITIONS

Based in Harare, Zvavahera is internationally recognised for her deeply expressive and rhythmic paintings that move fluidly between the physical and spiritual realms. Drawing from dreams, memories and lived experience, her works give visual form to intimate inner worlds, resulting in richly layered compositions infused with colour, symbolism and emotional intensity.

A self-taught sculptor, Coopoo transformed clay into a medium of adornment, critique, and storytelling. His innovative practice blurred the boundaries between craft and fine art, shaping fragile material into both intimate jewellery and commanding sculptural forms. His work carried tenderness, humour, and defiance, revealing the strength in vulnerability and the beauty in fragility.

The Norval Foundation is proud to announce the opening of Irma Stern: A life of displacement, a landmark series of exhibitions tracing the extraordinary life, journeys, and artistic legacy of one of South Africa’s most celebrated modernists, Irma Stern. Drawing exclusively on material from her extensive archive and Collection, this opening exhibition of the series forms part of a new unique multiyear collaboration between the Norval Foundation, the Irma Stern Trust and Nedbank.

Norval Foundation is proud to present the Norval Student Art Prize 2025 exhibition, showcasing the 13 winning artworks selected from hundreds of entries submitted by learners across the Western Cape. These exceptional pieces respond to the theme TO BELONG, inspired by the museum’s landmark exhibition, We, the People: 30 Years of Democracy in South Africa.
