............MORE ABOUT GREATMORE
RESIDENT ARTISTS:
The studios are rented as private spaces in which to work on a full time
basis. The studio ethos is one of co-operation and interaction. Studio
space and interaction with a broader community of artists is necessary
to ensure a professional attitude towards work that is being created.
The Greatmore Studios address a further need for the community of Cape
Town to integrate within a meeting place where art is seen with the respect
it deserves.
Greatmore Studios are situated in Woodstock, close to the city and accommodate
up to fourteen artists. At least nine of these are mid-career artists
from a cross-section of Cape Town's communities. One studio is set aside
to accommodate a younger artist who is committed to their career in art
making, but need guidance from working with established artists. Three
studios are set aside for the visitors program, accommodating artists
from other parts of South Africa, Africa and abroad, and one studio is
utilized as a printing / screen printing studio.
