Intriguing Sculputers not to be Missed

Release - KwaZulu Natal Midlands, South Africa

This remarkable sculpture of Nelson Mandela was developed to commemorate the 50 years of the peace activist’s imprisonment by the apartheid police.

The 50 columns of steel indicate the 50 years Nelson had to endure behind bars. The sculpture is installed at KwaZulu Natal Midlands, the same place Nelson was arrested in 1962 for his work to bring equal rights to the nation.

Marco Cainfanelli’s artwork was unveiled on 4 August 2012.
