FNB Art Joburg

Event information

Africa’s leading and longest running contemporary art fair, FNB Art Joburg, returns to the Sandton Convention Centre.

The fair is a platform where curatorial and commercial interventions meet. It is divided into seven specialised sections: gallery HUB, gallery LAB, MAX, ETC, AUX, ORG, and the newly introduced GIF section.

The gallery HUB is the fair’s central section and presents the best in contemporary Africa art from across the world. The gallery LAB is an incubation to develop emerging galleries and hybrid art spaces, presenting and testing new ideas and business models aimed at transforming the contemporary African art landscape.

The MAX section houses installations or works that would present a challenge if presented in the conventionally sized gallery booth. The ETC section offers the opportunity to engage with master print and publishing houses, featuring an abundance of books, prints, catalogues and zines.

The ORG section looks to redefine how the public engages with organisations. Whether museums, universities or private institutions, the section is a hands-on approach to examine bodies that were established for the good of the public.

The AUX section brings industry leaders to the public to explore a plethora of topics impacting the contemporary art world in the form of talks, screenings, public lectures and audio essays. Finally, the new GIF section gives galleries the opportunity to spotlight photographers in their programme.

There is also a special VIP event hosted a night before the art fair's weekend opening.
