Willem Postma en sy vrou, Susanna Elizabeth Sophia Snijman, oudste dogter van ds. W.J. Snyman, jare lange predikant van die Venterstad en suster van dr. P.C. Snijman, leraar van die Steynsburg van 1902 tot sy dood in 1915. Die Afrikaanse skryfster Minnie Postma was getroud met Philippus, die vyfde van die egpaar se 10 kinders. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLaurika se vader, wat ten tyde van haar geboorte predikant was van die Gereformeerde kerk Bethulie, het in 1903 na die Vrystaatse hoofstad verhuis waar hy die Gereformeerde kerk Bloemfontein op 13 Junie daardie jaar gestig het. Hy was ook bekend onder sy skrywersnaam, Dr. O'Kulis, skrywer van Die Eselskakebeen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTerwyl sy in Bloemfonteinin matriek was, sterf haar vader onverwags op 13 Desember 1920 en moes sy die skool verlaat. Sy het gaan werk as tikster in die destydse Grey-universiteitskollege, tans die Universiteit van die Vrystaat. Agttien lang jare het sy stil voortgewerk, en die menigte studente was onbewus van die brandende begeerte om haar aan haar kuns te wy, wat haar elke beskikbare pennie laat spaar en menige jongmeisieplesier laat verontagsaam het. Sy het aandklasse geneem in teken en skilder en pryse gewen op kunswedstryde, maar soms was sy haar leermeesters vooruit, en sy het gevoel dat sy niks verder kom nie.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUit die karige inkomste kon sy eindelik genoeg spaar om in 1935 'n jaar verlof te neem en vir ’n jaar oorsee te vertrek vir studie. Dit het die einde aan haar verlowing aan Jan Fourie beteken, wat later getroud is met Anne Francoise van Rooy, die sesde kind van ds. Koos van Rooy en Breggie Postma. Die Fouries se een dogter, Breggie, was getroud met ds. W.J.I.M. du Plessis.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBy Milly Steger, ’n Duitse beeldhouer (15 Junie 1881 – 31 Oktober 1948), 'n leerling van die beroemde Georg Kolbe, in Berlyn moes Laurika Postma tot haar verrassing en ontnugtering verneem dat sy duidelik talent wys as beeldhoudster. Dadelik het sy daarmee begin en nooit weer teruggekyk na die skilderkuns nie, want sy het gevind dit is die medium waarin sy haar kon uitleef. In dié kort jaar van harde werk, waarin sy soveel moontlik rondgegaan het om alles te verwerk en in te drink, het sy ook in München les geneem by Ernst Balz (1904–1943) en het vinnig gevorder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1942 het Postma die opdrag gekry om saam met Hennie Potgieter, Frikkie Kruger en Peter Kirchoff die historiese friese te maak vir die Voortrekkermonument, waaraan hulle vyf jaar gewerk het. Dis 'n werk wat besonderse dissipline en samewerking geverg het om 'n deurlopende eenheid te kry uit die werk van vier individue. Elkeen was verantwoordelik vir agt panele, en Postma het onder meer die “Vermoording van Dingaan\", “Dirkie Uys\", “Deborah Retief\", “Aankoms van Pretorius\", “Gelofte van Cilliers\", “Die moedelose mans\" en “Bloukrans\" uitgebeeld.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTerug in Suid-Afrika moes sy van vooraf begin werk aan die Boerenooientjie, 'n treffende uitbeelding van die jong dogter wat moedig, ken omhoog, voortbeur in haar Voortrekkerdrag, teen 'n sterk wind in. Anton van Wouw het die beeld nog gesien by die gietery en baie daarvan gehou.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDaarna het sy 'n borsbeeld van haar oom, Totius (hy was getroud met haar oupa, ds. Dirk Postma se jongste dogter, in peinsende stemming, en op verskillende tye ook borsbeelde van press. Hoffman en M.T. Steyn van die Vrystaat, van D.F. Malherbe, van dr. Stals en van Irma Moerdyk voltooi. Een van haar vroeë werk was 'n plastiese beelding van “Griesel se skepsel\", 'n swart vrou van oor die 100 jaar oud, die ene plooie.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn opdrag van 'n groep Afrikaners in Lusaka, Noord-Rhodesië, het sy 'n beeld gemaak van twee hande wat 'n fakkel omhoog hou. Postma het ’n besonderse liefde vir die beelding van hande gehad en het byvoorbeeld laat in die 1950’s 'n afbeelding van die biddende hande van die Gereformeerde Vrouevereniging se wapen “Bid en Werk” voltooi vir die Lettie du Plessis-eetsaal van die PU vir CHO.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"De Jager-Haum","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":37482155901078,"sku":"Laurika Postma: 'n biografie","price":650.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0458\/5524\/4438\/products\/20210104_182403.jpg?v=1609781473"},{"product_id":"irma-stern-the-early-years-18941933-general-series-south-african-library-by-schoeman-karel","title":"Irma Stern: The early years, 18941933 (General series \/ South African Library) by Schoeman, Karel","description":"\u003cp\u003eIrma Stern: The early years, 18941933 (General series \/ South African Library) by Schoeman, Karel\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBook Condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSoftcover.

The family had been farming in the Colesberg district but were forced by drought and the dilution of income by a large number of sons on the Coetzee family farm, Strydpoort, to seek an income in the rich mining economy of the Witwatersrand some time before Christo's birth. Christo's father developed a lung condition colloquially referred to as miners' phthisis and moved to the building industry, where a talent for drawing became evident. Christo would later attribute his artistic talents to his father and his business acumen to his mother. Christo's father died in 1939 and he was raised by his mother and two sisters, Gertruida (20 years his senior) and Johanna (16 years older).\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChristo attended Parkview Primary School and then Parktown Boys' High School, where he became an enthusiastic art student.

Immortality often walks hand in hand with those who pour out their lives in a fleeting urge to express the beauty they see around them. So it was with Pieter Wenning, who came from Holland to the mundane occupation of bookseller's clerk in Pretoria. The urge to paint became an obsession, but it was only at the age of 42 that he was able to devote all his time to art. Already in failing health, he had only six years of feverish and uninterrupted activity before dying in poverty.

Genls. De Wet en De La Rey het geglo hy is ‘n ware profect, terwyl staatsmanne soos genl. Hertzog, Louis Botha en Jan Smuts selfs in die Parlement getuig het hoedat van oom Nicklas se `gesigte’ bewaarheid is. Siener van Rensburg was, volgens alle beskikbare getuienis, n ware profeet, ‘n diep gelowige Christen en hy het sy gawe van profesie ook nooit vir eie gewin gebruik nie. Hy is reeds in 1926 oorlede, maar tot vandag toe word hy gereken as een van die merkwaardigste persoonlikhede in ons geskiedenis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVanaf 1871 tot en met sy dood in 1926 het die Siener 700 of meer gesigte of visioene gehad oor die toekoms van die Boerevolk, ander nasies en ook wêreldgebeure. In 1918 profeteer hy hierdie ontstellende woorde: “Ek sien daar kom ‘n tyd dat die hele wêreld ontgeploeg is (die uitbreek van dic Derde Wêreldoorlog, en dinge is baie deurmekaar). Dan sien ek oor die ongeploegde land lê ‘n slang. Ek sien nie sy kop of stert nie (niemand sal presies weet wat aan die gang is nie. In die kerk sal dinge ook baie deurmekaar wees)… Juis dan sien ek my dogter Anna sit en skryf. Toe weet ek: In daardie tyd sal niemand ook kop of stert van my gesigte kan uitmaak nie, want die een sal sê: Oom Klasie het so gesê, en ‘n ander een sal stry: Nee, hy het sus gesê… Van toe af het ek my dogter gevra om elke dag se visioene neer te skryf…sodat almal eendag kan weet…”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVir die skryf van hierdie boek het Adriaan Snyman lank intensiewe navorsing gedoen. Hy het die land deurkruis om onderhoude te voer met die handjievol tydgenote van die Siener wat nog die voorreg gehad het om hom persoonlik te ken. Hy het ook honderde briewe met interessante staaltjies en herinneringe in verhand met die profeet, sy gesigte en die verklarings daarvan ontvang.

His distinctive style is widely recognised and his work was greatly influenced by the South African landscape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost of his landscapes were of the South African highveld, which provided a lifelong source of inspiration for him. Pierneef’s style was to reduce and simplify the landscape to geometric structures, using flat planes, lines and colour to present the harmony and order in nature. This resulted in formalised, ordered and often-monumental view of the South African landscape, uninhabited and with dramatic light and colour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePierneef’s work can be seen worldwide in many private, corporate and public collections, including the Africana Museum, Durban Art Gallery, Johannesburg Art Gallery, Nelson Mandela Metropolitan Art Museum, Pierneef Museum and the Pretoria Art Gallery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePierneef was born in Pretoria, from Dutch and Boer parentage. He started his high school career at the Staatsmodelschool (literally “model state school”) there, where he took his first art classes, but it was interrupted by the Second Boer War. Due to the war, the Pierneef family decided to move back to the Netherlands in 1901. While there he studied at the Rotterdamse Kunstakademie. During this time, he also came into contact with the works of the old masters, which left a lasting impression on him.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePierneef returned to Pretoria at the age of 18, where he met with and was encouraged by already established South African artists such as his godfather Anton van Wouw, Hugo Naude and Frans Oerder. His first public exhibition, where his work was generally well received, was with van Wouw and Naude in 1902. He worked at the State Library during the night for almost ten years and painted in his studio during the day. In 1910, Pierneef married Agatha Delen, a woman 12 years his senior.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePierneef held his first solo exhibition in 1913, to great critical acclaim, some even describing his work as that of a genius, which inspired him greatly. His second solo exhibition was held two years later and was also very well received. During this period, he also did various illustrations for a periodicals and books.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1918, Pierneef left the State Library and started a career as an art lecturer at the Heidelberg (South Africa) College of Education. During the following year, he also started teaching drawing at the Pretoria College of Education. These positions gave him the opportunity to focus on his art and he participated in many successful solo and group exhibitions during 1920 to 1921. Due to the recognition that he received, Pierneef realised that he was setting the trend for a unique South African style. Personally, it was a difficult time in his life – his wife Agatha suffered from a mental disorder and also started to lose her sight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePierneef resigned as lecturer and became a full-time painter in 1923, due to differences of opinion regarding the curriculum with the Department of Education.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePierneef visited South West Africa (now Namibia) from 1923 to 1924, where he sketched extensively for paintings that would later be completed in his studio. These would later be considered some of his best works.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDespite his successes, he was experiencing some financial difficulties, and had to resort to other jobs to make ends meet. During one of these, an advertising project to sell the land around Hartebeespoort dam, he met his future second wife, a Dutch woman named May Schoep. Pierneef divorced Agatha in 1923 and married May in 1924.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe couple visited Europe from 1925 to 1926, where Pierneef promoted his art and also studied the newest art movements. He also held a solo exhibition in the Netherlands, where his Bushmen drawings drew great attention.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1927 Pierneef’s daughter was born and he held a very successful exhibition of 86 of his works in Pretoria. However, during his solo exhibition the following year, he had some abstract modern works on display, which were very badly received, compelling him to revert to his old style. His daughter’s name was Marita (“Mickie”) Pierneef. May Pierneef (née Shoep) was the sister of Albertha Louise du Preez, nickname Be (née Schoep) who was married to Dr Jan Dirk Gysbert du Preez (a doctor, graduated in the Netherlands and Maths genius), who brought May Schoep and their mother, Wietje, to South Africa from the Netherlands, when he married Be.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePierneef accepted a commission in 1929 to paint 32 panels for the interior of the then-new Johannesburg Railway Station, a task he completed by 1932. Since 2002 the complete set of thirty two panels, twenty eight landscape and four tree scenes, is on long term loan from the Transnet Foundation to the Rupert Art Foundation and have also been exhibited in the Jan Rupert Centre in Graaff-Reinet. The panels are considered to be some of his best work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1933, he was commissioned to do seven murals for South Africa House, the South African embassy on Trafalgar Square, London.

(from the dustjacket)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe author, Dr. Keath, graduated in Architecture from the University of Natal and has lectured widely on the history of Architecture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSimply put, Sir Herbert Baker is one of South Africa’s most famous architectural minds. Born in Cobham, England, Sir Baker travelled to Cape Town in 1892 to visit his brother and was commissioned to design and remodel Groote Schuur. At the time, Groote Schuur (Dutch for “big barn”) was the home of Cecil John Rhodes and the residence was located on the slopes of Table Mountain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter the development was completed, Sir Herbert Baker’s reputation as the architect of choice in South Africa was set. He travelled to a range of countries to learn more about other architectural styles and construction methods and thereafter returned to South Africa. Sir Baker settled back into designing, constructing and remodeling homes and other buildings for the country’s British Colonial settlers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThanks to his strong connections to governors and British Colonial leaders, Sir Baker decided to set up a permanent practice in South Africa, under the name “Herbert Baker, Kendall and Morris”. It’s through this firm that Sir Baker’s portfolio of work grew even more and he created some of South Africa’s most well known buildings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSir Baker’s influence on South African architecture is unparalleled. His design and construction influence can be seen in Rhodes University, the Pretoria Railway Station and many of South Africa’s more upmarket schools like the Roedean School in Johannesburg. Sir Baker would also go on to build homes and design homesteads for a number of wealthy mining magnates, which means that in today’s age in the upper suburban areas of Johannesburg his architectural themes and distinctive style still stand out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTHE UNION BUILDINGS\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePerhaps most famously, Sir Herbert Baker was commissioned to design the Union Buildings in 1909. The very first building block for the Union Buildings was laid in 1910 and construction completed in 1913. It was after this construction project, that Sir Baker left for New Delhi in India, before returning to England. During his time in India, Sir Baker was instrumental in designing and constructing buildings for New Delhi, which would later become the British Raj capital.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd while the country of South Africa may be growing at a rapid pace with industrial developments and commerce dominating much of the skyline, there’s still a strong reminder of the influence of Sir Herbert Baker. While time may pass and buildings change, the essence of his work still stands tall throughout South Africa.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLook carefully, next time you’re near any of the buildings Sir Baker designed, and you’ll find a little piece of South African history.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ashanti Pub","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40065653375126,"sku":"Herbert Baker: Architecture and idealism 1892-1913, the South African years","price":990.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0458\/5524\/4438\/products\/20210614_175207.jpg?v=1623687127"},{"product_id":"pj-nienaber-kurator-van-ons-erfenis-by-thariza-smit","title":"PJ Nienaber - Kurator van ons Erfenis by Thariza Smit","description":"\u003cp\u003ePJ Nienaber - Kurator van ons Erfenis by Thariza Smit\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHardcover: Folio Publishers: ISBN 0868160822\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1985 First Edition\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVery good Condition.DJ has some edge wear.

Rousseau's account of the life of Eugène Marais begins in the early days of Pretoria (1871) and ends three years after Hitler's rise to power. Between these two dates are sandwiched many of the great events of Afrikaner and South African history: the British occupation of Pretoria, the beginning of the Afrikaans language movement, the Jameson raid, 'the naughty nineties' (when Marais was in London), the Boer War and its aftermath, World War I, and the rise of Afrikaner nationalism. Against this changing canvas, Rousseau introduces the reader to Marais in all his complexity, he explores Marais's talents as a naturalist, hypnotist, doctor and psychologist. He gives us an insight into Marais as an advocate, citizen of the world, magician and author and also takes us into his life as the widower, the lover and the tragic morphine addict.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jonathan Ball Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40128675545238,"sku":"The Dark Stream: The Story Of Eugène N Marais","price":350.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0458\/5524\/4438\/products\/20210622_172638.jpg?v=1624379599"},{"product_id":"c-louis-leipoldt-eensame-veelsydige-by-p-j-nienaber","title":"C.

Coetzee wêreldwyd as romanskrywer en letterkundige bekend, was daar nog geen omvattende biografie oor hom nie. Vir J.M. Coetzee: ’n Geskryfde Lewe het J.C. Kannemeyer, wat veral vir sy Afrikaanse literatuurgeskiedenis in twee dele asook verskeie biografieë van Afrikaanse skrywers bekend is, die samewerking van Coetzee self gehad. Coetzee het onderhoude aan hom toegestaan, en Kannemeyer met familielede, vriende en kollegas in aanraking gebring. Coetzee het hom ook toegang tot ’n aansienlike aantal dokumente in sy private besit gegee. Voorts het Kannemeyer die geweldig omvattende literatuur oor Coetzee bestudeer en op inligting afgekom wat nie tevore ontgin is nie. Kannemeyer het hierdie biografie voor sy skielike heengaan op 25 Desember 2011 voltooi, en Michiel Heyns het dit uit Afrikaans in Engels vertaal.\u003cbr\u003eDie boek is ’n reis deur Coetzee se lewe, en begin met ’n ondersoek na sy geslagsregister. Daarna kom sy kinderjare in Kaapstad en Worcester onder die loep. Ná ’n beskrywing van sy skooljare word sy loopbaan, van sy studentejare aan die Universiteit van Kaapstad en sy tyd as rekenaarprogrammeerder in Brittanje, uitgelê. Hierna het hy sy doktorsgraad aan die Universiteit van Texas in Austin verwerf, en daarna was hy drie jaar lank ’n lektor aan die New Yorkse Staatsuniversiteit in Buffalo. Sy deelname aan vreedsame versetoptrede teen die teenwoordigheid van die polisie op die Buffalo-kampus het daarop uitgeloop dat sy aansoek om ’n visum vir verdere verblyf in daardie land geweier is, en hy moes na sy geboorteland terugkeer.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan id=\"freeText10081750590768542984\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMet sy terugkeer in 1971 is Coetzee as lektor in Engels aan die Universiteit van Kaapstad aangestel, en vir die volgende dertig jaar het hy ’n vermaarde akademiese loopbaan geniet. Onder meer was hy besoekende hoogleraar aan universiteite in die Verenigde State, en het hy ook talle lesings en voorlesings by ’n groot verskeidenheid konferensies en instellings gelewer. Sy eerste roman, Dusklands, het in 1974 verskyn, en is gevolg deur etlike romans wat hom as ’n vooraanstaande romanskrywer in Engels gevestig het.\u003cbr\u003eVir die eerste keer openbaar hierdie biografie inligting oor ’n outeur wat nie net by uitsondering onderhoude aan joernaliste toestaan nie, maar ook baie swygsaam oor sy private lewe is. Die biograaf het ’n geleentheid gekry om talle wanopvattings wat steeds bestaan, reg te stel, en inligting te voorsien wat lig op die ontstaan en implikasies van die romans werp.

In Afrikaans literature, Krige is counted among the Dertigers (\"Writers of the Thirties\"). Uys Krige was, according to his friend Jack Cope, very much an exception among Afrikaner poets and writers of his generation due to his hostility to extreme Afrikaner nationalism, White Supremacism, and his role later in life as a mentor to young Afrikaner intellectuals who convinced them to join the internal opposition to Apartheid.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAccording to Uys Krige's friend Jack Cope, \"He was essentially a lyric poet, his subjects personal, often romantic, sentimental; his technique despite a full acquaintance with Dada, Surrealism and other schools remained traditional, helped along with homely anecdotes and plentiful rhyme. He enjoyed the resonance and timbre of words and liked to exploit the nuances of his language as against the precision of French and Spanish with its darker more sensuous tones.\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"J.L. van Schaik","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41234447597718,"sku":"Met Ander Oe by Krige, Uys","price":250.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0458\/5524\/4438\/products\/20211218_181804.jpg?v=1639931468"},{"product_id":"anton-rupert-n-lewensverhaal-by-ebbe-dommisse-willie-esterhuyse","title":"Anton Rupert: A Biography - Ebbe Dommisse; Willie Esterhuyse","description":"\u003cp\u003eAnton Rupert: A Biography - Ebbe Dommisse; Willie Esterhuyse (English Copy)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHardcover, ISBN 9780624041511\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePublisher: Tafelberg, 2005 First Edition.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsed - Very Good+.

Her most arresting works are portraits of Africans, but she also paints landscapes and still lifes. Some of the still lifes incorporate works of African sculpture from her personal collection, e.g., “Buli stool with fruit” (1952), which depicts a Luba caryatid by the Buli master (page 146).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn this full-blown art historical study of Irma Stern, Arnold explores the life and work of this expressionist painter whose “vision of Africa” has today “become a target for post-colonial analysis and is often discussed as too eclectic, politically incorrect, and as a mere appropriator of other cultures” (page 150). Arnold takes a more sympathetic view, while recognizing the limitations of the artist and the woman. There is, however, no denying the richness of Stern’s œuvre — a feast for the eye.

As a child Berman resented and avoided Stern during her extended visits to her parents. Now she takes an extremely sympathetic view of both the artist and her parents’ relationship with her. Stern visited the Feldmans often and corresponded frequently over three decades. Her letters to the Feldmans, which are the centerpiece of this memoir, reveal the more personal and intimate side of Stern as well as the complexities of her personality. The Feldman’s admired and purchased Stern paintings and were sitters for multiple portraits.
