Education Project
The major extraordinary feature of this exhibition project is that the whole exhibition will be introduced and accompanied by an "Education Program" for schools and universities.
Educational aims and concepts for use with the schools and universities during the exhibition period are already being worked out in advance, in close co-operation with the South African institutions.
Learners and university students are handed for free a book to the exhibition so that they can find their own way in to 20th century art according to the A, B or C Level. This is unique for South African art and art education.

Daimler South Africa is providing shuttle buses to transport school and university students to the exhibition. This means that a whole generation of school and university students will be able to look at art that has never been seen in South Africa in its original versions before, surveying the essential aspects of art history over the last few decades.
