After an exhaustive nation-wide selection process 100 artists
and over 130 art pieces have been chosen for South Africa’s
largest contemporary art exhibition, the Spier Contemporary
2010. The Africa Centre’s art biennale, the Spier Contemporary
2010 will launch on the 14th March 2010 at the Cape Town City
Hall.
The artworks were selected from a national call for submissions,
with artworks collected at thirteen selection centres across
South Africa. The final exhibition was chosen from over 2,700
entries, which represents an increase of 10% on the submissions
received for the Spier Contemporary 2007/8. The selection was
made in November and December 2009 by a curatorial team of five
local and continental industry professionals.
Work has begun on the Cape Town City Hall, where the first leg
of the Exhibition will be held. The Spier Contemporary has
commissioned architect Nabeel Essa to design the exhibition.
Nabeel’s vision is to contrast the contemporary nature of the
artworks against the historic grandeur of the Edwardian
building.
