The Association For Visual Arts (AVA), 35 Church Street, Cape Town, Solo exhibition by WILLIE BESTER in all three gallery spaces. approximately twenty pieces on show; one large size sculpture made from industrial waste and recycled scrap and entitled "Monument vir die Agtergeblewenes". (This is dedicated to those South Africans taken for a ride by the previous regime in South Africa as part of a system which dragged them through the metaphorical mud so that they are now unable to align themselves with the new order. This can encompass those who either do not want to and are unwilling to try to adjust to new times deliberately, or those that simply cannot. Ironically, these people often regard themselves as superior, living as witnesses rather than actively trying to find new ways to interact and work towards change.)
