Event information
RMB Latitudes Art Fair returns to Johannesburg for its third edition. Brought together by the team behind Latitudes Online, and in partnership with Rand Merchant Bank, the fair offers visitors a unique art experience that brings together the art community from across the continent and diaspora.
Over the course of the Fair, galleries and artists from across Africa showcase their art throughout Shepstone Gardens, a magnificent three-acre property, and visitors are invited to discover and explore all corners of the indoor-outdoor venue, as they wander through marble halls, secret gardens and rooftop pavilions, enjoying a diverse programme of exhibitions, talks and more.
The talks form a part of Latitudes Live, a programme of talks and activations that are aimed at facilitating an enhanced and holistic experience of RMB Latitudes 2025. Last year’s programme was concerned with interrogating the evolving relationship of the modernist gallery space (or the white cube) to African Art. The hopeful intention was to find new, innovative and regenerative ways to inform exhibition-making, and other elements and tools within the art ecosystem, that draw from and cater to the African context. The programme for 2025 is yet to be announced.
Driving guests are requested to park at Old Ed's and await a shuttle to the venue. There is a drop off zone at Shepstone Gardens for ride-hailing guests. Guests are urged to have their ticket ready to show officials for access.
