We are hosting an exhibition of art by 5 specially chosen local Durban artists who will be present on site to meet guests and discuss their works. All art on display will be for sale at very reasonable prices.

Sponsoring an art exhibition to showcase and, hopefully, sell the art works of five young emerging Durban based artists. They have all been identified as excellent talents by Andries Botha who is one of South Africa’s most recognised artists/sculptors globally and is best known for building incredible life-size models of elephants that are exhibited all over the world. Andries is Durban born and bred, is passionate about the city and its art scene and I am sure that the works to be exhibited for sale will be a great advert for the high quality of art produced here.

We will erect a tarpaulin on the forecourt of our store right on Florida Road and make all the arrangements necessary to ensure that the art is properly displayed and that the artists themselves will all be there to talk about and sell their artworks. We plan to exhibit from 6pm to 10pm but this are flexible.

The price for each work will be between R4 000,00 and R14 000,00. The prices of each will be determined by Andries in consultation with the artists to ensure that they are reasonable and will provide visitors with an opportunity to buy some excellent local art without breaking the bank.

The artist who have been chosen to exhibit are Bhekazi Ngcobo, Joseph Manana, Jessica Bothma, Kenneth Shandu, Janine Zagel and Lindelane Ndumiso.

The proceeds of every sale will go to the artists except that we will deduct 10% which we will donate to the Umgeni Estuary Conservancy who do magnificent work clearing the estuary of debris and removing noxious and alien plants. We already provide this wonderful organisation with sponsorship which ensures that the island on the left side of the Blue Lagoon Bridge heading north is cleared of plastic and other debris twice every week. Look next time you cross and you will see that it is generally pristine.
