Presented by The Art Fund and the Esmée Fairbairn Foundation. An acquisition project to build a collection of modern and contemporary work on paper from Australia, Canada and South Africa was undertaken over 2011-13 with the support of a grant under The Art Fund's RENEW programme. The collection was developed with the expert advice and generous assistance of Annie Coombes and Norman Vorano in relation to South African and Inuit artists respectively. Khadija Carroll, Anita Herle and Diana Wood Conroy also contributed to the selection process. Part of the Rorke's Drift Portfolio of six prints by Zanele Buthelezi, Sbongile Hadebe, Phindile Manyoni, Sphiwe Mthiyane, Carol Hadebe (C.Ndebele) and Zanele Magawaza, 2007. Edition 9/30. Portfolio accessioned as 2013.258- 263.

Obtained as part of a larger group of prints 2013.221- 263 from Caversham Press. (The Caversham Press, P.O. Box 87, Balgowan 3275, South Africa.) The prints arrived at MAA in September 2013.

The Caversham Press was founded in 1985 in the Caversham Valley of KwaZulu-Natal to afford South African artists access to a professional collaborative printmaking studio for the production of traditional limited edition prints. The Press was the first comprehensive facility of its kind in Southern Africa and has become highly regarded not only for the range of processes it offers and the expertise of founder and print-master, Malcolm Christian, but also for its reputation as an accessible and collaborative art centre.
