Polly Street: The Story of an Art Centre by Elza Miles is the story of No. 1 Polly Street in Johannesburg, where a group of idealists began to teach art voluntarily to Africans who were eager to express themselves visually. The history of this art school is pieced together from artworks, interviews, newspaper and magazine articles, two Masters theses, academic papers, municipal minutes, letters and fieldwork.
Very well illustrated.
