Wilsenach created ‘Project For The Blind Astronomer’ between 2009 and 2013 in collaboration with Spier Arts Trust’s Patronage Program. This exhibition, or sections thereof, have been shown locally and internationally in prominent exhibition spaces such as The Smithsonian’s Museum for African Art, Newark Museum of Modern Art, Kunstakademie Düsseldorf, Pretoria Art Museum and Spier Wine Farm.

‘Project For The Blind Astronomer’ is an artistic exploration of space, how we map the stars and how our sense of sight enables us to witness the splendour of the universe.

Art, like food and wine, is best shared, which is why Spier is such an enthusiastic supporter of African artists and their creations. Housing one of the largest contemporary art collections in the country, Spier believes in the power of the visual arts to teach and inspire, encouraging us all to engage openly with our world and each other. With such a thriving local artistic community and rich cultural heritage, Spier is excited about the future of South African art.
