Artists of the day

Dylan Lewis, internationally renowned sculptor from Stellenbosch, will be giving art lovers a unique experience by turning the town into an outdoor sculpture gallery. Not only will his life-size sculptures be viewed up close and personal, but in the setting Dylan will allow the animals depicted to claim back the area they once roamed freely. 23 life-size Dylan Lewis sculptures will be on display in and around the main areas of Stellenbosch, including the historic town centre and the communities of Idas Valley, Jamestown, Tennantville and Kayamandi from November 2008 until April 2009. Among these 'manifestations' of wildlife will be 21 big cats, a buffalo pair and one rhino.
