Název článku: LOVEMORE KAMBUDZI: ONE OF THE FINEST ARTIST FROM ZIMBABWE SINCE INDEPENDENCE

Zdroj: AfricanColours - Your Guide To Contemporary African Art, November 24, 2011/Author: Stephen Garan'anga


Lovemore Kambudzi, an honourary graduate of Zimbabwe's famous BAT Studios of Fine of Art of the National Gallery of Zimbabwe in the 1990's has emerged to be one of the most successful painters since independence in 1980.

The reserved soft spoken artist who rarely appears at public gatherings has never been hesitant to speak out his mind through his work even on issues that are sometimes considered to be extremely sensitive by mighty forces.

Lovemore's successful satirical way of panting on massive canvases, intricacies of each and every subject with the usage of unforgiving timid brush strokes and the controlled use of colour strongly makes his work an instant hit in most parts of the world it has been exposed to.

His work has been used on book jackets both nationally and internationally, published in magazines around the world from New Zealand to the Czech Republic, from South Africa to Germany ...


Lovemore Kambudzi: Last Warning

... Recently Kambudzi's piece titled "Last Warning" from Czech's Marie Imbrova's collection was pledged to Art for Africa™ Auction, a unique auction that presented the work of cutting-edge African artists alongside some of the major names in American Contemporary art at Sotheby’s New York on November 17, 2011. This second Art for Africa™ Auction followed the successful inaugural one held in London in September, 2009. The proceeds from the New York sale will benefit Africa Foundation’s work in support of orphaned and vulnerable children living in some of the poorest rural communities in South and Eastern Africa.

Zdroj: AfricanColours - Your Guide To Contemporary African Art, August 08, 2011/Author: Allan Kapten


"Spirit of a Woman: A journey through the sculpture of Lazarus Takawira" is one of the most authoritative books on one of Zimbabwe's and Africa's finest sculptors, Lazarus Takawira. The book, by author Celia Winter, is about this magnificent Zimbabwean sculptor, his life, work and origins.

Lazarus Takawira is described by the author as "a sculptor not overshadowed by the past or 'run down' by the present and sadly predictable future of the stone sculpture made in Zimbabwe"...

...This 46 page book is a story of the work of Takawira, accompanied by stunning images of his work by photographer Eric Gauss.

Published in 2008, with special support from Marie Imbrova and the Alliance Francais, "Spirit of a Woman: A journey through the sculpture of Lazarus Takawira" is a tribute to a master.

This wonderful book is now available at AfricanColours ...

Název článku: FOOD AND TRAVEL: IT’S A FAMILY AFFAIR … AT DA EROS!

Zdroj: ZIMBABWE INDEPENDENT - The Leading Business Weekly, March 11, 2011, 11:55 a.m./Author: Dusty Miller


SADLY, my family is 10 000km away, still braving the British cold which descended on them (just before I did!) in mid-November.

When, or if, they return to Ha-ha-ha-rare (Africa’s fun capital), top of the list for a rattling good Sunday lunch with loads of laughs will be Da Eros Trattoria, opened late last year by the Italian-Ethiopian Prandini family, who used to run the now empty, forlorn Italian Bakery, of fond memory, at Avondale ...

... Dr. Marie Imbrova, who used to be with the Czech embassy here, but now roams the globe promoting Zimbabwe art, joined me at this stage, but would consume only cappuccino ...
