NEWSLETTER SUDAFRICANA.COM + SALLYARNOLD.COM
Welcome to my fourth newsletter, featuring images of the
completed façade project at Delheicht School, Esch (LU) - currently entered
for the IOC/IAKS Award in Germany and the
Concours Construction Acier 2007 in Luxembourg
- and designs for a new collaborative
gallery/spa/wine restaurant project in Sweden. You may subscribe or unsubscribe with a simple click in

There are currently no exhibition participations scheduled for 2007. My paintings and my
article on architecture in Luxemburg are featured in the recently published Luxemburger
Lexikon (Editions Guy Binsfeld):
Das ganze Land in einem Band - Alles Wissenswerte über das Großherzogtum Luxemburg:
Namen, Daten, Fakten. Dieses Lexikon, das erste seiner Art, das jemals in und über
Luxemburg zusammengestellt wurde, informiert über luxemburgische Geschichte, Geografie,
Politik, Wirtschaft, Wissenschaft, Religion, Sport und alle anderen klassischen Wissensgebiete.

"... Dass das Buch im kleinen Großherzogtum mit seinen 450 000 Einwohnern auf Anhieb mehr als 20 000 Mal
verkauft und damit zum Super-Bestseller wurde, ist nur ein weiterer Beleg für den Bedarf an Gesten
der Selbstvergewisserung. Im übrigen hat natürlich, wer auf sich hält, auch rasch geprüft,
ob er/sie wohl in diesem Luxemburger Lexikon vorkommt oder doch den schweren
Weg in den
Olymp noch vor sich hat. ..." (Klaus Brill: "Der Löwe ist los", Süddeutsche
Zeitung, 12.03.2007)
My focus in 2007 is on co-developing a multi-purpose space featuring a selection of the best
South African contemporary crafts, art, organic wines, vinegars and grape seed extract spa
treatments in an historic farmhouse situated 30mins. from Copenhagen and Malmo in south Sweden.
The ecologically certified farm and private landing strip Fridhem
Gaard is owned by flight
commander Anders Paulsson. Official opening is scheduled for summer 2008, please
visit www.threelilybuds.com for updates.
I'm delighted to be working on this beautiful space and have custom designed a mohair carpet
and marble mosaic tables for the branding concept, as well as co-sourced custom-designed
furniture and art from South Africa.
Project planning is under way for phase 3 of the impressive, two-thirds completed new
Mamer-Koenigsbund
school complex. Colourful wall paintings, folio patterns and a striking orange, black and cement mosaic
will complete the large-scale artistic programme.
Since 2000, I have been donating 10% of all art sales to my Skuinshuis
Arts Scholarship Fund.
This fund currently enables a formerly underprivileged scholar from the Karoo town
Prince Albert, South Africa, to prepare for a 3-year diploma course in the arts. Your support
for my work is of great help to this important cause. Donations are most welcome:
please donate directly to the scholarship bank account number (in my name) below at
ABSA bank in South Africa, mentioning your name and address. News of the candidate's
progress will be posted on
www.sudafricana.com/projects.html. Bank details: ABSA a/c number: 909 220 1506. Swift code: ABSA ZA JJ
