"The concept SPace embodies two notions, space and pace, which signify sites/contexts and tempos/energies that are part of societal make up. Space is wherein ideas are negotiated and meaning produced through various human activities and social practices, while pace is speed, the rate at which change or advancement of such activities and practices take place in society."

Statement by Thembinkosi Goniwe and Melissa Mboweni, Curators

Through July 11 - the final day of the first World Cup to be held in Africa.
