The newest contemporary art bi-annual of South Africa seems to have skipped a year (a year, not a round), but at least it’s still alive. From Africa Centre » home:
The first edition of Spier Contemporary was an unparalleled success. It attracted close to 20 000 visitors in Cape Town and Johannesburg and provided a national and international platform for the participating artists, with many artists commenting on the positive impact that the event has had on their careers.
The Africa Centre is planning the second edition of Spier Contemporary which is due to run in 2010. The submission date for the next competition will be announced in March 2009.
We would like to thank the participating artists, art collectors, buyers, arts media and the general public for their interest in, and support for the Spier Contemporary.
I’m guessing we can start watching this space.
