In an effort to expose local artists to potential art buyers and create synergy between art and the corporate world, Africa Art College (AAC) will host a community exhibition at Mo’s Table in The Fairscape Precinct (Fairgrounds) on May 25.

The exhibition, a black tie art event, will see some of the country’s renowned artists such as Wilson Ngoni, Martin Sefako, Tshepo Molapong, Lesedi Segobye, Loretta Mekgwe, Ditshupo Mogapi, Rachael Hutton and Rexx Mautle to name but a few showcasing their work.

AAC is an institution of high learning which offers degree courses in Art for Storytelling such as BA (Hons) Fine Art, BA (Hons) Animation and BA (Hons). According to the exhibition organiser and director of AAC, Goabaone Mogwe, the event aims to present art as a business or plausible career choice by introducing artists to the corporate world. “Inviting corporate CEOs and their teams also expose the buying parties to the massive and competitive talent which the country has to offer and hopefully they start buying locally than buying outside.
