Berman's Art & Artists of South Africa is the most comprehensive reference work on South African art yet published. Since the first edition in 1970, it has been critically acclaimed, repeatedly reprinted, and nationally and internationally acknowledged as the standard work on the subject. The text features biographies of hundreds of artists, and articles on museums, institutions, art groups, and associations. The book is designed in dictionary form with each page keyed for convenience in locating information. Notable features include an index with over 10,000 cross references and an exhaustive bibliography with a compilation of the names of all South African participants in major national and international exhibitions.
