CURRENT EXHIBITIONS

Umkhangu/Birthmark is a contemplative exhibition that brings together a powerful body of work by South African artist Sthenjwa Luthuli. Born in 1991 in KwaZulu-Natal, Luthuli is a self-taught printmaker, celebrated for his meticulously carved wood reliefs and woodcut prints, enriched with oil paint, charcoal, and mixed media. His works move beyond portraiture to serve as profound meditations on identity, cultural tradition  and   African spiritualism.

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.

Billie Zangewa: Breeding Ground, curated by Anelisa Mangcu, explores the transformative potential of nurturing as a fundamental force for growth, creation, and connection. Through her masterful use of silk collage, Zangewa examines the cycles of care that define human existence, offering a compelling meditation on themes of motherhood, community, identity, and resilience.
