The Investec Cape Town Art Fair's strength has been engaging in a global conversation 'through a non-geographical lens'.
Fittingly, the notion of time is this year's curatorial theme at the Investec Cape Town Art Fair. The Investec Cape Town Art Fair runs from 17 February to 19 February at the Cape Town International Convention Centre. Its director, Laura Vincenti, told Ocula Magazine the fair's strength has been its ability to provide South Africa with an international platform for artists from around the world to 'engage in global conversation about humanity through a non-geographical lens'.
Vincentri commented, 'It is interesting to observe how artists from South Africa and other parts of the world are responding to digital tools and influences in their art making' noting that this makes for 'a fair that is in tune with the times that we live in'.
The Cape Town Art Fair is organised by exhibitions giant Fiera Milano and sponsored by Anglo-South African banking group Investec. Musing on its future, Vincentri said, 'My real wish is to have a footprint throughout the year collaborating with local institutions, artists, and galleries.'
