Berni Searle South African, b. 1964

‘Made Routes: Mapping and Making,’ curated by acclaimed academic and art historian Tamar Garb, brings together the work of two South African artists, Vivienne KOORLAND and Berni SEARLE. The encounter between them speaks to their shared artistic concerns and their participation in the landmark exhibition ‘Trade Routes: History + Geography’ at the 1997 2nd Johannesburg Biennale, organised under the artistic directorship of the late Okwui Enwezor (1963–2019) to whom this exhibition is dedicated.
