New exhibition by Blessing Ngobeni at David Krut
Announcing ‘Untitled Excursion Series’ - a first body of work in intaglio printmaking by Blessing Ngobeni.
Opening: 14th of February 2026 at 11am
Checkerboard Gallery, David Krut Arts, 151 Jan Smuts Avenue, Parkwood
Blessing Ngobeni’s Untitled Excursion Series showcases final works from the artist’s latest series of etchings and pronto-lithographs, alongside selected process materials that illuminate his first body of work in intaglio printmaking.
The works were produced in collaboration with Sbongiseni Khulu at the David Krut Workshop (DKW) and demonstrates the fluid relationship between Ngobeni’s performative mark-making and DKW’s technical expertise, weaving movement, rhythm, and visual sound into a powerful print series.
The final works not only translate Blessing’s painterly gestures into copper and ink, but also extends his ongoing exploration of African expression, rhythm, and interconnectedness through body and sound.
