Namibian artists head to Cape Town Art Fair

Invested Cape Town Art Fair returns to the Cape Town International Convention Centre this week and within its programme of exhibitions, art talks and tours are four Namibians. Featuring Stephané Edith Conradie, Tangeni Kambudu, Anne Lacheiner-Kuhn and Maria Mbereshu alongside over 120 exhibitors from across the globe, the 12th edition of the prestigious fair will take place from 21 to 23 February under the theme of ‘PLAY’. “Through ‘PLAY’, Investec Cape Town Art Fair offers a space where the boundaries between creator and viewer are fluid, and where art itself becomes a living, interactive experience,” says fair director Laura Vincenti. “Rather than being a passive observation of aesthetic objects, ‘play’ invites the audience to actively participate.” Lacheiner-Kuhn and Mbereshu, exhibiting in collaboration with Windhoek’s The Project Room, will both be making their Investec Cape Town Art Fair debut in the ‘Lookout’ section.
