The picture above was taken in 1930 at an Art Exhibtion opening at the Arts Hall of Eastern Provence Society of Arts in Port Elizabeth, South Africa. The building is now one of two buildings that house the extensive permanent collection of the Nelson Mandela Metropolitan Art Museum. Time passes and in 2008 (78 years on) much has changed - not to mention the Freedom of the people of South Africa (1994) but also faces, fashion and the visual arts - as seen at the annual exhibition opening of:
"Who's Who and What's new?" 2008.
The Friends of the Art Museum teamed up with the Museum in an innovative exhibition linked to a "Silent Auction". The Silent Auction will run concurrently with the Exhibition “Who’s who and what’s new?”. The deadline for all bids is 12 Noon Friday 23 January 2009. The Closing function and Bid Reveal will be held that same evening at 17:30p.m. Friday 23 January 2009. Only the highest bid will be revealed. All are welcome to the closing function of “Who’s who and what’s new?” and Bid Reveal.
