A true global art capital, Cape Town was announced the World Design Capital of 2014 following the city’s demonstrated commitment to use art and design as a means for social and economic development. This year, an exciting art and design programme kicks off with the annual Cape Town Art Fair, which brings together leading art galleries and offers a perfect snapshot of the contemporary art scene in South Africa. With more than 40 notable galleries exhibiting such as the Goodman Gallery, Stevenson and Everard Read, the Art Fair will once again feature the artwork of over 100 influential and emerging artists from South Africa and the African continent at large. The fair will also include dialogues and interviews with artists, and various talks and performances.
