Résumé (en anglais)

This paper deals with the process of change, transformation and modernisation of the Southern Ndebele culture, from the first struggle against the apartheid state to the affirmation as a landmark in modern art. This contribution seeks to investigate the roots of the transition from a local tradition to a contemporary language and understand the reasons for its world-wide success: the creation and consolidation of the Southern Ndebele cultural identity is the key concept to reaffirm the intangible values of the community and disseminate a fresh new idea of “African Renaissance”. The paper follows the historical and typological path of the Southern Ndebele art and architecture, from the origin to the present, through comparative analysis with neighbouring groups (i.e. Basotho or Tswana) and investigates on the impact of irreversible change on their social structure through the ways of assimilation and reuse of external languages. The question is how the colonisation and globalisation process had influenced the material and immaterial culture of a community and how a diverse perception has been determined to enhance the incessant dialogue between human beings and nature that we call history.
