Let Your Hair DownUntil 2nd November
This exhibition celebrates the creativity, individuality, and innovation in hairstyling and art, in South Africa and other parts of the African continent. It also explores the political, social, cultural, and economic implications of hair and hairdressing, and looks at how hair communicates information about age, religious affiliation, social status, political ideologies, and aspirations. Extraordinary objects that are used to protect, style and adorn hair, historical and contemporary artworks, barbershop posters, films and installations from the Wits Art Museum and other public and private collections have also been included. The exhibition is accompanied by a fully illustrated catalogue and an educational resource. Entrance is free.
