DION CUPIDO SOLO EXHIBITION: PLAIN REALITY

2 – 30 Maart 2017

Dion Cupido’s fourth solo exhibition, titled Plain reality, opens at the Worldart gallery on Thursday 2 March.

From ducking and diving with cans of spray paint in Mitchells Plain as a teenager to the artist who “represents a moment in which our dark history and its democratic afterglow are both beside the point.” (Ashraf Jamal, Sunday Times, April 6, 2014), Cupido has become one of the most important portrait artists in South Africa. He was recently commissioned to do a mural in the UK and his solo exhibitions are always greeted with anticipation and excitement.
