Now stability and certainty has been injected into the station by SABC's decision to commercialise it. Now 'The Station With A Mind Of Its Own' is well and truly back in business. Not long ago the sounds of exiled musicians such as Hugh Masekela, Caiphus Semenya and Miriam Makeba were banned in South Africa. Radio BOP, with a totally different broadcasting philosophy, became a breeding ground for some of today's top DJs. The station's mix has now moved away from the strong American influence and concentrates on reflecting topical South African issues.

It also contains an introduction by David Elliott- biographies of the twenty seven artists whose work is included in the exhibition- a list of works and an extensive bibliography. Spanning seventy five years of work- the exhibition allows us to examine this most 'European' of Latin American cultures. 95 Art from South Africa Published to coincide with an exhibition of South African art organised by the Museum and the Zabalaza Festival Co-ordinating Committee. Edited by David Elliott- with essays by Albie Sachs- Mongane Wally Serote- Colin Richards- David Koalane- Rayda Becker. Initiated in consultation with the democratic cultural structures within South Africa- the exhibition showed for the first time in Britain a wide range of painting- sculpture- craft work- posters and banners of over 60 artists coming from both urban and rural communities. At the close of 2000 and the beginning of 2001 the studio is inundated with projects, the much needed refurb of Hoxton's original drinking den Charlie Wrights gets the Studio's touch. Working with the ever expanding Elbow Room Chain Swiss Cottage's Cube bar become pool lounge, hamburgers and cocktails. With further projects in Bristol and Brighton on the cards, look out south coast. The first Barbican flat being seen by millions on the channel 4 documentary, the studio has been commissioned to do a penthouse once again in the Barbican. Bridlington's sea side resort is not the first place you would turn for trendy bars, or is it.
