In 2015\/16 he collaborated with Sanlam Art Collection, to mount the three exhibitions of her works they sponsored in both Cape Town and Johannesburg. Since then he has continued to maintain contact with all the auction houses that deal in the artsit's work worldwide, and to broaden his knowledge of both public and private ownership of her artworks. In this way he collated both images and data for the Catalogue, and deepened his knowledge and understanding of her art. The Catalogue is the fruit of the labour of these 15 years. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Elliott (P.)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42755414065198,"sku":null,"price":1499.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/clarkesbooks.co.za\/products\/nita-spilhaus-1878-1967-catalogue-raisonne-of-artworks","provider":"Clarke's Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
