TAXI Art Book Educational Supplement: Willlem Boshoff

Description

This educational supplement is published together with a TAXI Art Book on Willem Boshoff. In a prolific career spanning more than two decades, Willem Boshoff has produced his own dictionaries, intricately crafted wooden sculptures, installations in sand, and monumental works in stone. If there is a single thread binding these diverse works together, it is his fascination with language and books. Never afraid to engage with social issues, Boshoff has made challenging works like The Blind Alphabet, which addresses blind viewers, and The Writing in the Sand, which seeks to open dialogue between speakers of different languages.
