Overview
Ralph ZIman: The Casspir Project, 1-54 Contemporary African Art Fair (Pioneer Works, New York, USA)

The Casspir Project charts the locus of the South African military vehicle’s legacy of institutional oppression - a legacy with which we are still reckoning. The central element of the project is one of reclamation - a restored and refitted Casspir vehicle, its surfaces fully covered in elaborate, brightly-colored panels of glass beadwork, Arrayed in traditional patterns and completed by artisans from Zimbabwe and the Mpumalanga province of South Africa, including women of the Ndebele tribe, known for their craftsmanship. The Casspir Project, is a multifaceted and unprecedented undertaking, ultimately comprising installation, photography, oral history, and documentary, from the South African contemporary artist, Ralph Ziman.
