The Constitutional Court Trust (CCT) is looking for recent South African graduates with a keen interest in visual art and justice in South Africa.

This publication focuses on the CCAC's Hlabisa basketry collection.

“Art is a form of individual self-expression, where everyone can have a voice. As long as art is open and free of legislation, and as long as viewers can look at art without prejudice, I think there is a natural connection between art and human rights.”
– Anne Sassoon (CCAC artist)

“People that come to the Constitutional Court meet art with an open mind to be influenced by it. The world is looking at us making a success of what we do here and how we deal with apartheid.”
– Stefan Blom (CCAC artist)
