An artistrsquo;s canvas reflects the face he chooses to show to the world; but the place in which that art is made is seldom revealed. Paul Duncan was given unparalleled access into the homes and lives of fourteen of South Africarsquo;s most revered artists. Over countless mugs of coffee or glasses of wine; he listened and observed as they spoke about their lives; loves and the way they make their art. South African Artists at Home takes the reader into some very private spaces; affording us a glimpse of what the artist goes home to at the end of the day. For some; the work space and home space are irrevocably intertwined. For others; home is a sanctuary. Or perhaps it is the studio that is the sanctuary and home is where lsquo;real lifersquo; happens. Either way; if you have an interest in art; artists; and the often bizarre way that making art intersects with living life; yoursquo;ll find this book intriguing.
