The ICA is thrilled to announce that 2019 Standard Bank Young Artist for Dance Kitty Phetla’s collaboration with composer and pianist Nduduzo Makhatini, Going Back to the Truth of Space, will headline the ITC Opening Programme on Monday 18 November from 5.30pm, repeated on Tuesday 19 November 2019. The work, which will be performed in the Whale Well at the South African Museum of Natural History, was premiered to critical acclaim at the National Arts Festival in Makhanda in July. It reflects on African modes of performance and ritual, embracing the realm of the ancestors as an evolving space. Communicating in moments of improvisation, the performers transcend the ideas of home as geographic space and connect with ancestors using dance and music as a portal to the divine.

ITC 2019 will take place from Monday 18 to Sunday 24 November featuring an impressive list of local and international artists, and bringing a diverse array of works to public spaces across Cape Town.
