Kevin Beasley’s Cape Town residency transformed urban traces into sculpture and sound

THE STORY, IN BRIEF

In a March 2020 ArtThrob review, Lucienne Bestall examined Kevin Beasley’s exhibition at A4 Arts Foundation following his Cape Town residency. She described sculptures made with found clothing, photographs and an audio installation assembled from city recordings. Her reading connected these materials with bodily absence, African-American cultural references and the movement of donated garments into South Africa’s informal economy.
