Rather than focusing solely on the artworks themselves, <i>Held in Trust<\/i> considers the relationships, histories and decisions that shape how art is acquired, cared for and carried forward.<u><\/u><u><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"m_7977513469238295732p3\"><span lang=\"EN\"><u><\/u>\u00a0<u><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"m_7977513469238295732p3\"><span lang=\"EN\">The exhibition explores collecting as a personal and evolving practice, shaped by curiosity, lived experience, intellectual interests and individual encounters with art. Each collector was invited to select a work that resonates with them, opening up a conversation about the ways artworks enter our lives, inform our understanding of the world and contribute to the preservation of cultural histories.<u><\/u><u><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"m_7977513469238295732p3\"><span lang=\"EN\"><u><\/u>\u00a0<u><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"m_7977513469238295732p3\"><span lang=\"EN\">In this sense, a collection becomes an evolving archive, reflecting not only the works it holds but also the ideas and experiences through which they acquire meaning.<u><\/u><u><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"m_7977513469238295732p3\"><span lang=\"EN\"><u><\/u>\u00a0<u><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"m_7977513469238295732p3\"><span lang=\"EN\">Standard Bank Art Curator and Gallery Manager, Dr Same Mdluli, says: \u201cThe exhibition gives us an opportunity to look at collecting as one part of a wider ecosystem, while also broadening how we understand the purpose of art. Art can be a personal encounter, a way of thinking, a record of memory, a means of connecting people and, through collecting, something that is carried forward for future generations.\u201d<u><\/u><u><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"m_7977513469238295732p3\"><span lang=\"EN\"><u><\/u>\u00a0<u><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"m_7977513469238295732p3\"><i><span lang=\"EN\">Held in Trust<\/span><\/i><span lang=\"EN\"> also considers the networks that make collecting possible.

Initiated in 1938 with the acquisition of a single painting, the collection has grown into a significant repository of cultural memory, reflecting changing artistic practices and the social and cultural histories of South Africa.<u><\/u><u><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"m_7977513469238295732p3\"><span lang=\"EN\"><u><\/u>\u00a0<u><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"m_7977513469238295732p3\"><span lang=\"EN\">Together, the collections offer a broader understanding of what it means to support the visual arts. Collecting is presented not only as an activity associated with established patrons, but as a spectrum of engagement that can begin with a first acquisition and develop into a sustained commitment to artists and their practices.<u><\/u><u><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"m_7977513469238295732p3\"><span lang=\"EN\"><u><\/u>\u00a0<u><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"m_7977513469238295732p3\"><span lang=\"EN\">As new generations encounter different ways of acquiring and living with art, the exhibition opens up questions around access, patronage and the future of South Africa\u2019s visual arts ecosystem.<u><\/u><u><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"m_7977513469238295732p3\"><span lang=\"EN\"><u><\/u>\u00a0<u><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"m_7977513469238295732p3\"><span lang=\"EN\">\u201cSupporting contemporary African cultural expression means investing in the people, practices and relationships that allow culture to grow and endure,\u201d says Dr Same Mdluli.<u><\/u><u><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"m_7977513469238295732p3\"><span lang=\"EN\"><u><\/u>\u00a0<u><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"m_7977513469238295732p3\"><span lang=\"EN\">\u201cBy bringing private collections into dialogue with the Standard Bank Corporate Art Collection, the exhibition opens up these different ways of engaging with art and invites audiences to think beyond the artwork itself, towards the role it can play in enriching our cultural lives.<u><\/u><u><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"m_7977513469238295732p3\"><span lang=\"EN\"><u><\/u>\u00a0<u><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"m_7977513469238295732p3\"><span lang=\"EN\">This is part of what it means to support contemporary African culture: creating spaces where art can be encountered, understood and carried forward.\u201d<u><\/u><u><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"m_7977513469238295732p3\"><span lang=\"EN\"><u><\/u>\u00a0<u><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"m_7977513469238295732p3\"><span lang=\"EN\">More than an exhibition of privately held works, <i>Held in Trust<\/i> invites audiences to consider the cultural responsibilities that accompany collecting.<u><\/u><u><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"m_7977513469238295732p3\"><span lang=\"EN\"><u><\/u>\u00a0<u><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"m_7977513469238295732p3\"><span lang=\"EN\">What we choose to preserve influences the stories that remain accessible, the artistic practices that continue to receive attention and the histories that can be carried into the future.<u><\/u><u><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"m_7977513469238295732p3\"><span lang=\"EN\"><u><\/u>\u00a0<u><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"m_7977513469238295732p3\"><a name=\"m_7977513469238295732_OLE_LINK3\"><\/a>The Standard Bank Art Lab is at shop 33-34, Nelson Mandela Square, 2 Maude St, Sandton.
