Cape Town Art Fair Vernissage

para todos os países que acreditam que os poços de petróleo, as descobertas das grandes pedras de diamantes e tantas outras supostas riquezas naturais compram o desenvolvimento intelectual dos seus povos, desistam porque estão no caminho errado... para chegarem a este nível ou o mais próximo dele não existe outro caminho se não investirem na formação das pessoas. 

[It is with great excitement that we welcome you to the fifth edition of Cape Town Art Fair (CTAF), taking place from 17-19 February 2017 at the Cape Town International Convention Centre (CTICC).

Positioned as the leading art fair in Africa, CTAF 2017 includes the foremost galleries from South Africa, the African continent, and abroad.More than 80 local and international exhibitors are presenting quality works alongside a must-see programme of curated exhibitions, special projects, talks, guided walkabouts and a digital media platform.

Tumelo Mosaka, the newly appointed Cape Town Art Fair curator and Laura Vincenti, now the chief operating officer of CTAF, have been leveraging their mutual expertise and international networks to place the Fair on the global art calendar. 

Also new to the Fair is the introduction of the Unframed section, museum-quality sculptures and new media installations. Returning to the Fair is Tomorrow/Today, which showcases solo presentations by some of the most exciting emerging artist from Africa and the diaspora, as well as Past/Modern, Cultural Platforms and Editions.

Cape Town Art Fair is delighted to play host to this global art gathering, once again offering you an extensive programme presenting diverse galleries, cutting-edge exhibits, cultural platforms and digital platforms.]
