Solidarity - Stars in the Community |
|
Salomi recieved the "Stars in the Comunity" award from Solidarity South Africa. Solidarity is one of the oldest trade unions. Salomi donated a set of artworks to Solidarity in 2008 that portrays the murder victims for one year in South Africa. The following is from a news article on Solidarity's website
At first glance it looks like a beautiful painting of a scene in South Africa, but at closer inspection the deep and shocking reality is revealed. Salomi Prinsloo’s artwork, 19 829 epitaphs for South African murder victims in 2003-2004, has already caused a huge stir – not only in the art world, but also in people’s lives. Prinsloo donated the work of art to Solidarity. The artwork, which consists of six panels, is marked with notches that represent murder victims in the period 2003-2004. The work now has a place in the trade unions head office to “mean something to someone”. |

Finesse - March 2009 |

Art Gallery Opening Salomi Prinsloo Signature Gallery is opening its doors on 19 March 2009 in Waterkloof Glen, Pretoria. As an established South African and international artist, Salomi brings her busy schedule to a halt once a quarter in order to have personal interaction with the public. These exhibitions display her collector’s pieces, as well as work that reflects her passion for the country, its people, her surroundings and convictions.
Salomi is happiest when she experiences the delight of creating by spontaneously applying and playing with the paint on her canvases. For this creative process she needs solitude. People however remain of equal importance to her. Salomi says “at the end of the day, relationships are what truly matter in life”. That is why, despite her success as an artist, she has not been able to give up her art school Visual Art Centre. She finds great satisfaction in empowering people with painting techniques, even when they think it is impossible!
Exhibition dates for Salomi Prinsloo Signature Gallery for 2009 are: 19, 20, 21 March 30, 31 July, 1 August 8, 9, 10 October
Salomi’s exhibitions can be viewed per invitation or appointment. Contact details: preferably sms her at 082 878 0441 or email her at
