Investec Cape Town Art Fair will take place from Friday 16 to Sunday 18 February 2018 at the Cape Town International Convention Centre. The participating galleries are set to offer a broad representation of the forefront of contemporary art, from Africa to the world and the world to Africa.
Internationally renowned galleries such as Galerija Gregor Podnar (Berlin, Germany), Perrotin (Paris, France) and Magnin-A (Paris, France) will be welcomed to Cape Town for the first time. We will also see the return of leading galleries such as Galleria Minini, October Gallery, Galleria Continua, Primo Marella Gallery, and Tiwani Contemporary, among others.
Highlighting the cutting edge of the African art scene are South African galleries including Goodman Gallery, Stevenson, Gallery MOMO, SMAC Gallery, WHATIFTHEWORLD, Blank Projects, and Everard Read CIRCA Gallery, amongst others. More broadly, important established and emerging galleries from the African continent such as Galerie Cecile Fakhoury (Abidjan, Ivory Coast), Afriart Gallery (Kampala, Uganda), Circle Art Gallery (Nairobi, Kenya), First Floor Gallery Harare (Harare, Zimbabwe), ARTLabAfrica (Nairobi, Kenya) and Addis Fine Art (Addis Ababa, Ethiopia) will also contribute to the strong showing of the region’s art market.
THIS IS NOT A WHITE CUBE and Mov’art, both from Angola, will be attending for the first time, presenting solo presentations in ICTAF’s curated sections Tomorrows/Today and SOLO. Curated by Nontobeko Ntombela, the inaugural edition of SOLO will highlight the contribution of female artists, and will include Parul Thacker from India, represented by Amar Gallery (London), Maïmouna Guerresi from Italy and Senegal, represented by Officine dell’Immagine (Milan) and locally, exciting young artists such as Buhlebezwe Siwani represented by WHATIFTHEWORLD (Cape Town) and Pamela Phatsimo Sunstrum represented by Tiwani Contemporary (London), amongst others.
