Snapshots from WHAG Collection

Published On: December 4, 2025

Snapshots from WHAG Collection is a richly illustrated volume that invites readers into a focused encounter with works from the William Humphreys Art Gallery. Composed of striking black-and-white photographs with moments of colour and painterly intervention, the book spans generations and media, from ritual and portraiture to urban life and experimental collage. Curatorial texts by Chepape Makgato, with contributions from Lelethu Sobekwa and Malikah Meyer, bring fresh, generational perspectives that reframe the museum’s holdings as a living conversation. An accessible, thought-provoking catalogue, it foregrounds emergent voices while honoring the complex histories that shape contemporary South African art.
