Colleen Madamombe
Coleen Madamombe er en stor gevinst for Zimbabwe, for kunst i
verden, for den zimbabweanske kunstverden, for kvinder overalt.
Hun blev født i 1964. Hendes arbejde handler om kvinders rolle i
det zimbabweanske samfund, hendes velkendte stolte kvindefigurer
er kendt over hele verden, og hendes skulpturer er en natulig del af
enhver samling af zimbabweanske stenskulpturer.
De har en direkte appel til alle mennesker, ikke mindst til kvinder
på landet i Zimbabwe, som umiddelbart identificerer sig med hendes
figurer, og derved skaber en meget direkte kontakt mellem stor kunst
og mennesker langt ude på landet i Zimbabwe.
Colleen Madamombe is a great asset to Zimbabwe, to art in the
world, to the world of Zimbabwean Stone Sculpture, to women
everywhere.
Colleen Madamombe was born in 1964 and has achieved an unusual
level of success for a woman sculptor in Zimbabwe. Her work deals
with the role of women in Zimbabwean society, often addressing the
changing role of the woman in modern African life. Her trademark
female figures are known the world over, and her work is an integral
part of any collection of Zimbabwean Sculpture.
Her sculptures, which are always depicting proud African women,
have a direct appeal to everybody, not least women in the rural areas
of Zimbabwe, who immediately identify themselves with her persons,
thus creating a very direct link between great art and people of the
countryside of Zimbabwe.
