Awakenings: The Art of Lionel Davis

Awakenings – The Art of Lionel Davis, is as collaborative as the artist himself. The text is at the helm of a variety of contributors from tertiary institutes, the Africa South Art Initiative (ASAI), artists in their own right, as well as directors at the District Six Museum. Each written work compliments an analysis on Davis; the mediums he uses, the approach he has, his ethic, his story. Each essay is an homage to a period of his journey. For someone knowing very little of him in earnest, it proved the perfect tool to step into his world.
