The Capital Art Fair Tshwane (CAFT) is gearing up to host a transformative event that promises to reshape the cultural narrative of Tshwane, not just for 2024 but for the years to come. From April 5 to 7, art connoisseurs and the public alike will converge at Menlyn Maine, Pretoria, to witness this dynamic showcase.

The decision to host this extraordinary event in Pretoria, the political and cultural epicentre of South Africa, holds profound significance. It underscores Pretoria’s pivotal role as a central hub where diverse voices intersect, where history isn’t just made but also depicted on canvases and sculpted in galleries. CAFT stands as a testament to Pretoria’s vibrant spirit, inviting the world to witness the cultural renaissance unfolding within its boundaries.

Themed ‘Intersections,’ CAFT goes beyond being a typical art fair. It represents a convergence of narratives, a collision of perspectives, and an exploration of uncharted artistic territories. Through ‘Intersections,’ CAFT celebrates the fusion of tradition and rebellion, history and dissent, and global dialogue in a local setting.

Over 100 works from more than 20 groundbreaking artists will redefine the boundaries of creativity, spanning diverse mediums such as painting, photography, sculpture, mixed media, video, and performance. Renowned artists like Mark Swart, Sylvester Zanoxolo Mqeku, Mthuthuzeli ‘Sthu’ Manaka, Ivukuvuku, and many others will showcase their pieces, offering collectors a unique opportunity to engage with their works.

Patrons attending the fair will not only have the chance to absorb these highly acclaimed contemporary artworks but also participate in engaging art activities, attend public talks, and interact with fellow art enthusiasts.

In an exceptional partnership with esteemed institutions like the Pretoria Art Museum, Javett-UP, Tshwane University of Technology Arts Department, and Brand South Africa, CAFT is poised to unveil the raw, unfiltered essence of the Tshwane art circuit. Don’t miss the chance to be part of shaping the new art narrative. Tickets are available for purchase on Webtickets. Join CAFT 2024 and witness the evolution of Tshwane’s cultural landscape firsthand.
