Happy 2016, art lovers, and here are some global African art dates for your diary:

Cape Town Art Fair, 18-21 Feb
That Art Fair, Cape Town, 18 Feb - 6 March
VOLTA NY, 3-6 March (look out for First Floor Gallery and Ed Cross Fine Art)

Art takes over Cape Town in Feb. The Cape Town Art Fair and the fringe/emerging talent fair That Art Fair are just around the corner, kicking off on 17th and 18th of February. Look out for the stands of the National Gallery of Namibia (who’ll be at CTAF for the first time), and also the National Gallery of Zimbabwe.  Several Namibian artists will also feature at That Art Fair.  If you can’t be there in person, get live updates via our Instagram and Twitter feed. 

Technology & Curation. Check out the January digital issue of ART AFRICA (above) for Julie’s article about Online Exhibitions and Technology in Curatorship, as well as other interesting content on African art. You can download the mag via ART AFRICA’s app, on Apple and Android.  Last year’s online exhibition (Not) Remembering Namibia has also recently been featured in US publication Crave Online.

Back on the Ranch. We’re planning another City Soiree #DrawingRoom in Jo’burg, this time showcasing new and also previously-unseen early work by South African artist Bevan de Wet (above), who recently returned from a residency in Germany.  Stay tuned for more details, and pencil in the 2nd March!  If you ran out of time at the end of last year, don’t forget that we have new art online by Thina Dube, Mashudu Nevhutalu and Themba Khumalo.

As always, you can find us on Twitter, Facebook, Google+, LinkedIn and Instagram, and share the newsletter sign up link with other art-lovers. Questions? Drop me a line anytime on the email below.
 

All best
