Senzo Shabangu
Collaboration History
Senzo Shabangu began working on monotypes at the David Krut Workshop (DKW) with master printer Jillian Ross in 2010. His monotypes explored themes of urban living and human nature. Shabangu moved on to making linocuts in 2011 at DKW as an artist in residence in preparation for his solo exhibition, Naked Pressure, which was shown at the workshop gallery space.
He continued to print at DKW creating new works for his 2012 exhibition Amandla!. This was followed in 2013 by Obsession, his first show in the main David Krut Projects (DKP) gallery space on Jan Smuts Avenue, as well as a concurrent exhibition in Cape Town, titled Recollection: Works on Paper.
In 2014, he continued working with DKW, creating multiple prints with various techniques, working during that time with visiting master printer Phil Sanders. He exhibited two works at the 2014 Johannesburg Art Fair and was part of the group exhibition The Benediction of Shade II at DKP.
2015’s My World was the artist’s 5th solo exhibition with the gallery, for which he printed extensively at DKW Parkwood.
His works have also been shown at various art fairs and group exhibitions.
