PRESTIGIOUS LITERARY
AWARD FOR UCT SCHOLARS
There are Mechanisms in
Place, co-edited by UCT’s
Nkule Mabaso and Associate
Professor Nomusa Makhubu,
won Best Visual Art Collection
in the 2021 Humanities and
Social Sciences (HSS) Awards.
The book is a collection of creative
responses to the Michaelis Galleries
exhibition of the same name. The
exhibition refers to the South African
Minister of Higher Education’s comments
during 2015’s student protests: “A crisis
implies that the situation is so bad that
there are no mechanisms to deal with it.
There are mechanisms in place.”
