MAM show: irritating, fascinating / Turner, Elisa; Boshoff W; Koraichi R., 2000
In her review of the exhibition at the Miami Art Museum, Turner writes, "African artists have proved especially adept at using language in beautiful but provocative ways...Willem Hendrik Adriaan Boshoff of South Africa, who condenses handwritten and typewritten text into minuscule characters, such as his 1979 work written while in prison as a conscientious objector to apartheid. Some of his tiny letters are legible, while others are defiantly obscure. In ways both good and bad, they become a metaphor for the range of art in "Global Conceptualism." The work described, the manuscript for "Kykafrikaans," was lent to the exhibition by the Sackner Archive. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
