Liminality is an exhibition of first-, second- and third-year student’s work in the
Department of Fine Arts at the University of the Free State (UFS). The works are from 2019 and 2020. Created during the hard lockdown of 2020, the artworks provide a glimpse of what students had to deal with and overcome during these times.
In a proposal for the exhibition, Angela de Jesus, Curator of the UFS Art Galleries, wrote: “The subtitle of the exhibition is ‘threshold, transition, transformation’ and it refers to the creative processes that students engaged with
in these adverse circumstances resulting in a wide array of artworks in both traditional and adapted mediums.”
The exhibition speaks to our shared experiences of insecurity, fragility, and discord, and to the resourcefulness and immutability of creative expression.
The virtual exhibition runs until 2 July 2021.
The exhibition is also currently available for viewing at the Johannes Stegmann Art Gallery, Sasol Library, UFS Bloemfontein Campus. Monday - Friday 09:00 - 16:00.

Steinhoff Vishuis excited about final match
2010-03-25
Kovsies are eagerly awaiting the finals of the Steinhoff Koshuis League after Steinhoff Vishuis smashed the Steinhoff Villagers of the North-West University with 57-3 in the semi-finals on Monday, 22 March 2010.
When looking at their performance this week, it is clear that Steinhoff Vishuis will be extremely dangerous in next week’s final!
Steinhoff Vishuis will play the final match of the Steinhoff Koshuis League against Dagbreek from Maties on Monday, 29 March 2010 at the Danie Craven Stadium in Stellenbosch at 16:30. The match will be broadcast on SuperSport.
On Monday, 22 March 2010 Shimlas played in the semi-finals against Ikeys of the University of Cape Town. They lost 27-21.
In general it was a good season for the Shimlas, who for the first time played in the semi-finals. Congratulations once again to our Shimlas with their good performance in the FNB Varsity Cup.
