Mural For Cape Town's International Airport
Welcome FIFA 2010 Soccer World Cup
Objectives: To create awareness about the forthcoming FIFA 2010 event amongst all people visiting Cape Town
A giant mural welcoming the people arriving at Cape Town International airport would not only be expected by the 2010 visitors but it also would have a lasting impact on current visitors to Cape Town; returning back home they become FIFA 2010 ambassadors for SA.
From Germany:
Manfred Zylla

Manfred Zylla is of German nationality but has mainly a South African back ground. Zylla’s work expresses drastically his engagement in the resistant movement during the apartheid area. As a result his work became part of the curriculum to all SA art students.
Zylla's Biography
The mural “Eine Welt Haus” (One World House) in Munich, Germany, was completed by him, together with Charles Bhebe, in 2002.
