December 2019
Mail & Guardian

'Dust, beauty and geography combine in Moshekwa Langa’s Tropic of Capricorn': Nkgopoleng Moloi observes, 'home for Langa becomes his mind’s creations; home is in Limpopo with his neighbour, Martha Mbiza, as much as it is in the depths of the seas and the expanse of outer space. Home is positioned nowhere and everywhere'

Gabriella Nugent provides a brief chronical of Moshekwa Langa's life and work, outlining how his travels developed 'a fluid sense of identity and a complex subjectivity that refuse to serve someone else’s agenda'.

'Unstuck Segues: Moshekwa Langa's Tropic of Capricorn: 'Fugitive, elliptical, abstruse, opaque, unyielding, Langa’s art is the inverted perversion of art’s meaningfulness, or truth, or ideological directive. And yet it matters. It is all about matter' writes Ashraf Jamal

'The question that Where do I begin? poses feels as poignant an entry point into Langa's work now as it did in 2002' writes Tracy Murinik

Hamza Walker provides an overview of photography, painting and installation in the artist's work, concluding, 'If Langa's disparate and desperate practices constitute an atlas of the difficult world, then his is an invitation to join him "in the streets of the universe, now!"'
