“THAT ART FAIR celebrates emerging, independent and established artistic talent and fringe arts. It is a dynamic alternative to the traditional art fair model. Situated in Salt River, Cape town, South Africa, on the edge of the Woodstock creative district, the urban location presents artists’ work in an affordable, accessible and unintimidating environment,” the organisers said in a press release.

Founded and published by Brendon and Suzette Bell- Roberts and now in its 14th year, the publication is dedicated to transformation, growing networks and creating opportunities for young artistic talent in the contemporary African art world.
