A Country Imagined

The Reef (1x1)

Date de diffusion: Avr 25, 2010

Beginning at the site of world’s greatest cataclysm, which created the natural landscape and geology of the Reef, Johnny Clegg follows that elusive thread of gold, and the manmade landscape it has created in its wake, to discover the diverse ways in which artists have imagined and responded to it. On his journey Johnny meets artists Marcus Neustetter, Willem Boshoff, Sam Nhlengethwa, David Goldblatt, Hugh Masekela and Jo Ractliffe. He also ventures down the world’s deepest gold mine; samples age-old distilled beverages, and revisits memories of his childhood growing up on the reef.
