Sandy Burstein and Pebbles |
Guy McCallum, renowned art critic for the Financial Mail magazine writes of Burstein's work: |
| "Considering the vast geographical, political and cultural distances between South Africa and Europe, Britain and America, it is to be expected that local art movements should be at a disadvantage. However when viewing the works of Burstein alongside of the Natlie Knigkte Gallery's private collection of Hockneys, Chagalle, Dines and Miras, the comparisons are neither startling nor obvious as to which is international and which is local" | |
