“Peter Elliott’s catalogue raisonné of Nita Spilhaus represents a meticulously researched and thoughtfully structured study of the artist’s oeuvre. Arranged around the principal motifs and themes of her work, it provides an accessible and valuable reference for understanding the breadth and development of Spilhaus’s artistic practice. As a reference and research publication, this catalogue raisonné is a significant addition to the literature on Southern African art and will be an important resource for collectors, scholars, art historians, libraries and the art market.”
