The Jean Pigozzi African Art Collection

Ba’zinzile: A Rehearsal for Breathing, Stellenbosch Triennale, South Africa

from 19/09/2025 to 30/04/2025

Artists are invited from different parts of the continent and the world, and through their work we can explore, examine, interrogate, question, view and experience the present. Exhibition making as a Rehearsal: positioning the Triennale as a rehearsal for the actions and changes we aspire to enact in the real world. This exhibition is a rehearsal for breathing — Breathing is holy. Art becomes an infrastructure of care, posing the question: if death is the given condition, how do we prepare to live? 

 

Through this Triennale, we aim to map out pathways for Breathing by inviting artists to make works on-site in Stellenbosch that attend to breath and breathlessness thus entering a  Rehearsal as Improvised people. BA’ZINZILE: A REHEARSAL FOR BREATHING invites you to explore these themes, engage in the practice of insistence and find stillness and sustained breath amidst chaos.
