In the 2014 academic year, for the

first time in Mitchell’s Plain’s 35-

year history, Spine Road High School

achieved a 100% matric pass rate.

Also, Glendale High School learner

Jayson George matriculated with

eight distinctions as one of the top

20 matriculants in the Western

Cape. Jayson says the Trust was

instrumental in assisting to achieve

his dream of studying Law at UCT:

“I come from an area where some

kids grow up with no sense of hope

for the future. Now the future looks

bright; it looks better than the past.

We no longer have to be hopeless

because the Trust is focussed on

helping us to study further.”

In the 2015 academic year, the

17 Mitchell’s Plain High Schools

had an average matric pass rate of

85% compared to 76% in 2014.

This shows that, in spite of the

considerable odds which learners

from Mitchell’s Plain encounter on

a daily basis - including gang wars,

poverty and high crime levels in their

communities - it is possible to strive

for excellence and achieve success.

The Trust strives to provide these

promising young people, our future

leaders, with the financial support

they need to realise their goals

and dreams through education,

determination and hard work.

Bursary recipients also commit tobeing role models to their peers.

They are required to do a talk at

their school at least once per annum

during their years of study and to

support learners who want to follow

in their footsteps. The Trust also

encourages its recipients to assist in

forming and support alumni societies

at their high schools through which

past learners can plough back into

their schools and communities.

“This Trust can change the lives of

students, showing them and proving

to them, as was the case with myself,

that there are no limits to how far

they can go.” says Abubakr Maker,

currently studying Quantity Surveying

at the Cape Peninsula University of

Technology (CPUT).

All donations to the Mitchell’s

Plain Bursary and Role Model

Trust contributes toward providing

financial support to matriculants

and current students, enabling themto pursue tertiary qualifications and

their desired careers.

Your donation is an ‘investment’

in our country’s future, assisting to

produce educated and productive

citizens, making South Africa a better

country for all.

For information on the Mitchell’s

Plain Bursary and Role Model Trust,

visit our website:

www.mpbursarytrust.org.za

The Mitchell’s Plain Bursary and

Role Model Trust (the Trust) provides

financial support to young people who

want to study at tertiary education

institutions but cannot afford to do

so. The Trust facilitates learners’ access

to further studies through funding

for registration and tuition fees to a

maximum amount set annually by the

Trustees. The Trust works closely with

all 17 high schools in Mitchell’s Plain

to ensure that motivated, academicallyperforming and financially deserving

learners are given an opportunity

to study at university, technikon or

college. Bursary recipients are able

to reapply for support in subsequent

years of study, so as to enable the

successful achievement of their

qualifications.

The Trust was established by Trevor

Manuel in 2010 when, as a Member

of Parliament, he was deployed by the

African National Congress (ANC) to its

Mitchell’s Plain Constituency Office.

The Trust is a South African registered

Public Benefit Organisation (PBO) in

terms of both section 30 and 18A of

the Income Tax Act.

Founding Trustee Trevor Manuel says:

“Without community mobilisation

in support of young people who

show that they have the potential to

succeed, there will be little prospect

of placing education at the centre ofour collective efforts to confront the

scourges of poverty, inequality and

the hold which drugs and gangsterism

have over the lives of so many.”

Since its inception, the Trust has assisted

many young people from Mitchell’s

Plain to study at universities, technikons

and further education colleges. In 2015

alone, the Trust awarded more than R1-

million in bursaries to 82 matriculants

and current students.

Tyrone Appollis is a South African

artist and poet. He was active in the

formation of the Mitchell’s Plain Art

Group in 1988. He has held numerous

local and international art exhibitions.

A professional artist since the late

1970s, Tyrone Appollis works from the

conviction that “an artist must be of

his time”.

Tyrone Appollis’s art is rooted in his

geographic identity as a Capetonian,in his historic identity as a “coloured”

person, in his post-apartheid national

identity as a South African, in his non-

racial identity as an African, and in his

humanistic identity as a member of a

global community of artists.

Born in Cape Town in 1957, Appollis

studied art part-time at the

Community Arts Project under Cecil

Skotnes and at the Foundation School

of Art in Observatory. In addition to

wide recognition for his visual art, he

is also well known for his abilities as a

poet and musician.

Appollis’s work is represented in

several public and private collections

in South Africa and abroad.

Gregoire Boonzaier was born in

Newlands, Cape Town in 1909. He

was the son of the political cartoonist,

DC Boonzaier, and benefited from the

close contact with his father’s artist

friends, including Pieter Wenning,

Nita Spilhaus and Moses Kottler, the

sculptor. DC Boonzaier was strongly

opposed to formal art training, and

Gregoire’s initial studies were possible

through association with these early

Cape impressionist painters.

In 1923, at the age of 14, his first

two oil paintings were exhibited at

Ashbey’s Gallery in Cape Town - his

first successful one-man exhibition

was held there two years later.

Gregoire went on to hold more

than 100 solo exhibitions during his

extensive career of more than eighty

years. As a founder member of the

New Group with Terence McCaw,

Frieda Lock, Lippy Lipshitz and others,

he was elected its first chairman in

1938. The New Group rendered an

invaluable service to the cause of

South African art for almost 15 years.

Gregoire Boonzaier died on 22 April

2005, a few months before his 96th

birthday, having lived an extraordinary

life and productive career, during

which he was able to serve as a

mentor and teacher to generations of

South African artists and art lovers.

Joyce NtobeLot No 12

Joyce Ntobe was born in 1991 out of

frustration with increasingly prevalent

affirmative action. Beezy Bailey

submitted two artworks for a triennial

exhibition. One was with the traditional

Beezy Bailey signature, which was

rejected and the other signed Joyce

Ntobe. The latter now resides in the

South African National Gallery as part

of its permanent collection. When the

curator of the Gallery wanted to workon a paper about three black women

artists, Joyce Ntobe being one, Bailey

revealed the truth, causing a media

scandal.

Beezy Bailey was born on 21 July

1962, in Johannesburg. He is a South

African artist who works in various

media, including painting, sculpture,

drawing, printmaking and ceramics.

He has been a full-time artist for 30

years, with over 20 one-man shows

in London, Johannesburg and Cape

Town as well as numerous group

shows around the world.

He received a fine art degree from

Byam Shaw School of Art in London

in 1986, after studying life drawing,

printmaking, painting and sculpture.

Gail Catlin is the first, and possibly

the only artist to use liquid crystal as

the principal medium in her art. While

Catlin lived in Arniston, she became

fascinated by the nacreous quality of

sea shells and mother-of-pearl, and

was convinced that a new colour

spectrum needed to be developed to

capture the subtle and ever-changing

shades of nature.

She experimented with clays and

resins and fiberglass, which played

with light, when used in sculptural

form. She made contact with Dr Cyril

Hilsum at General Electric, who had

co-invented the hologram, and was aworld expert on liquid crystal. He first

introduced her to liquid crystal.

Her works have achieved a kind

of metastasis —the ability of the

artwork to escape fixity and to

constantly transform itself like a

kaleidoscope. She is probably also one

of the first artists to venture into the

realm of nanotechnology - the study

and manipulation of materials at the

molecular level.

Dion Cupido won the Truworths

Academy of Visual Arts Award at theArts and Media Access Centre (AMAC)

in 2003. As a teenager from Mitchell’s

Plain, Cupido began creating art as a

means of expressing himself. It was

only when a friend’s younger brother

asked Cupido to help him with a

matric art project, that he realised he

could paint and that he loved it.

Cupido had left school by then and

was doing various casual jobs to help

support the family. He wanted to

have his paintings in galleries. Gerard

Cloete, artist and owner of the Peanut

Gallery encouraged Cupido to create

a body of work. He used inexpensive

industrial ink from his father’s business

to paint with.

Peanut Gallery included Cupido’s

work in a group exhibition where he

sold his first painting in 2000. “It was

like coming home. I realised that this is

what would make me happy to wake

up every morning and I saw it was

worth fighting for.”

His most recent work involves what

he calls ‘African-Pop portraiture’. Five

paintings in the series were on display

in his first solo exhibition, ‘Perceptions

Of Beauty’ , at the Worldart Gallery.

He is a resident at Good Hope Art

Studios and his work is included in

several prestigious collections, including

the Nando’s art collection in London

and Beyoncé has bought his art.

painting is uncomplicated and direct.

In his work, the expressive use of li ne

and strong brushwork, amplify his

experience. “Colour is important to

me. Red symbolises the unhappiness

I associate with the problems with

land.” His paintings incorporate the

people of the Boland: labourers toil

in the vineyards, women carry woodor trudge wearily home after a day’s

work and strong southern sunsets

streak the sky.

Frank has had no formal tuition but has

learnt much by being in the company

of other artists and observing their

work. His work is original as he is

unaware of the traditional conventions

used to portray the human figure and

landscape. His talent was recognised

by the E’ bezweni Art Group in 1996.

Lesley Charnock, teacher, painter of

still lives and portraits, brings oils to

life. Step into her studio and teaching

space at Montebello Design Centre in

Newlands, Cape Town and there is no

doubt that you are in Africa. There is

vibrant colour, bright sunlight, deep

shadows, confident, energetic brush

strokes, luscious palette knife work,

strong tonal values…and, above all,

a love for the diverse people of Africa

and its breath taking beauty.Inspired and stimulated by her many

travels through Africa, Lesley finds

the subjects for her paintings in the

people she sees walking along dusty

country roads, working in the fields or

herding cattle and tending their flocks.

On the streets of the cities she finds

people waiting for taxis and buses,

selling fruit or flowers, or walking and

jogging along a promenade. Whether

it’s a landscape, a seascape or a city

scene, there is rarely a painting by

Lesley without a figure in it.

Then, for a change of pace, you will

find portraits full of life and vigour,

serene flower studies and striking still

life compositions. Her rich, glowing

oils have found their way into both

private and corporate collections

throughout South Africa and around

the world.

Liza Littlewort was born in Cape Town,

and lives and works in the city. She

uses fresh and experimental ways of

working with oil paint on different

surfaces, calling this methodology

“Absurdist” as it creates unexpected,

surreal accidents which Littlewort

uses to express her sense of the

essential absurdity of life. Her sense

of the absurd is informed by ideas

famously explored by Dadaism:

the inherent ridiculousness of neo-

imperialist ideology and its effects of

global devastation, mass poverty and

perpetual war.

Her last solo show “We Live in the

Past” critiqued hegemonic narratives

of whiteness in comtemporary South

Africa. For her forthcoming show

in April 2016, she is focussing on

what critic Brenden Gray describes

as “blind, liberal acceptance of

the transcendental properties and

goodness of art.” She intends for it

to take the form of a kind of magical-

realist satire of ‘cottage mysticism’.

Known for her expanding dimension

and exuberant colourful paintings,

French Corsican artist Catherine

Timotei’s work draws inspiration

from a diverse array of influences

- from Renaissance masters to the

20th Century abstract Expressionism

movement.

Her theory of pure colour echoes the

powerful impressions left by Hans

Hoffmann. Making a painting is

almost a physical struggle and reflects

the artist’s constant search to give

volume presence, between reality

and immateriality and between two-

dimensional extension and three-

dimensional depth. With the moral

impulse of the American expressionistheroes strongly entangled she bridges

the link between European and

American expressionism to develop

her own expressive potential. Her

artwork is full of allusions and

associations that are not easily

deciphered, leaving room for it to take

on a diaphanous form.

Catherine Timotei settled in South

Africa several years ago and lives in

Cuvée Clive | This extraordinary

bubbly represents the pinnacle of our

Cap Classique craft. Lovers of fine

bubblies produced in the traditional

Méthode Champenoise manner are

familiar with the terms Cuvée Prestige

or Tête de Cuvée. Loosely translated

this means ‘head of the class’. These

precious bottles are nothing less than

the very best of the best. Produced

in limited (exclusive) quantities and

mostly only in truly exceptional

vintage years, Cuvée Clive is crafted in

a brut style, with a minimum amountof sugar added at disgorgement.

This small dosage is possible thanks

to the quality of the grapes selected

and the time spent on the lees, in

our cool cellars. The Chardonnay

contributes elegance and fruit finesse,

while the Pinot Noir provides body,

structure and length of flavour. Cuvée

Clive has undoubtedly achieved the

fundamental prerequisite of that
