The Cape Gallery

The Cape Gallery is filled with art that speaks of Cape Town's unique African history and heritage. It specifically exhibits art that has that cultural stamp of South African flair, cultivating the roots of art in Africa. The Cape Gallery is situated in the Old City of Cape Town, appropriately surrounded by rich history and Dutch architecture. Following tradition, the gallery still exhibits paintings that describe the land and the plantation of the Western Cape, just as colonialist explorers would have done. The Gallery is set on preserving the history of Cape Town, and that in itself is a great reason to visit the gallery and see where Cape Town came from. -Annchen Marais

The Ava Gallery

Church Street is where you can find the AVA art gallery. It is most likely the one of the oldest not-for-profit galleries of the city and is dedicated to developing the contemporary visual art scene of South Africa. AVA regularly hosts month long exhibitions that showcase performances, paintings, installations, ceramics, and photographs. The gallery has roots that go back all the way to the year 1850 and their presence has definitely shaped the art of the city.

South African National Gallery

1871 befanden sich lediglich 45 Gemälde in der South African National Gallery. Später wurden britische Werke aus dem frühen 20. Jahrhundert ausgestellt. In den 80er Jahren fand jedoch ein Wandel statt. Immer mehr einheimische Künstler fanden ihren Weg ins Museum. 1990 wurde das Konzept des Museums völlig neu definiert. Ausschliesslich Künstler des afrikanischen Kontinents sind hier ausgestellt, mit besonderem Fokus auf die südlichen Regionen. Ausgestellt sind u.a. Gemälde, Fotografien, Textilien und Skulpturen. Die National Gallery ist der Fixpunkt einheimischer Kreativität.

This gallery is the genuine article, the real deal and the real McCoy in all of Cape Town. The expansive space, the depth and the information provided by the staff make it both moving and informative. Even if it’s your first visit to the gallery, you will feel at home, in your element and never out of depths. Quickly, you are in the company of fellow art lovers in what is a very pleasant experience in conviviality. Regardless of whether it’s a seasoned art lover, a dilettante or just someone looking for a pleasant afternoon, Stevenson has something for everyone’s palate. Or should we say “palette?” Admission is free.
