We are pleased to announce that applications for Investec Cape Town Art Fair 2020 are now open. View our application guidelines and online entry forms here. Applications close on Monday, September 16, 2019.

Investec Cape Town Art Fair (ICTAF) is the largest contemporary art fair on the African continent. The fair provides a platform for galleries, collectors, curators and artists from around the globe to engage in cultural and economic exchange. We offer personalised experiences of one of the world’s most unique art capitals. ICTAF is where the fast-growing African art market and the international art world meet.

The fair attracts the participation of galleries from the region and beyond, with many prominent, international galleries presenting their artists within an African context for the first time, alongside Africa’s leading contemporary art galleries.

The curated sections contribute to the fair’s intimate engagement. Tomorrows/Today offers a platform for galleries to highlight the work of emerging and under-represented artists. SOLO provides greater insight into the practices of the selected artists, with the section’s third iteration focusing on varying representations of space. We look forward to announcing the Fair’s new guest curators in the lead up to our next edition.

With the support of our title sponsor, Investec, ICTAF offers collectors unique access to exclusive art events, in collaboration with our participating galleries and partnering art institutions, providing an in-depth view of Cape Town’s thriving contemporary art scene.
