The Art Collection of Huberte Rupert: South African Art of the 20th Century

Art critic and writer Amanda Botha traces Huberte’s art appreciation journey through her involvement as a student cultivating friendships with local artists such as her ‘Big Five’: Cecil Higgs, Maggie Laubser, Irma Stern, Jean Welz and Anton van Wouw. The book features works from modern and contemporary South African artists, including works by Penny Siopis, Stanley Pinker, William Kentridge, and Wille Bester acquired from the Cape Town Triennials (1982–1991).
