Works on Paper

Works on paper encompass a diverse range of media—from drawings and paintings to prints and multiples. These differ from other mediums by offering artists the immediacy of paper. Strauss & Co features works on paper by artists using various techniques, including charcoal and chalk on paper, posters, drawings, linocuts, etchings, monoprints, and collages.

Our sales include historical pieces by artists such as John Muafangejo, Dumile Feni, and Fikile Magadlela, reflecting a period of intense social change and resistance under apartheid, as well as works by contemporary artists like Philemon Hlungwane, William Kentridge, and Sam Nhlengethwa.
