Virtual art expos<br />

We’ve found three local virtual art exhibitions you can enjoy without<br />

leaving your laptop…<br />

Banele Khoza’s gallery/shop/studio/artist project in vibey<br />

Braamfontein, done out in soft pastels, is a light and airy space for the<br />

expression of creativity. You can view the current exhibition, Blue is<br />

the Warmest Colour, with works by artists such as Vusi Beauchamp,<br />

Nelson Makamo and Jodi Bieber ... well worth an hour or so.<br />

The Norval Foundation is offering #60SecondArt digital stories via<br />

YouTube, Instagram and Facebook, giving art lovers knowledge clips<br />

on a specific artist, painting, or sculpture. The art being discussed<br />

either forms part of the Homestead Collection, or is art currently on<br />

display. Or you could take a virtual tour of the foundation’s beautiful<br />

Cape Town grounds. We’d recommend you do both.<br />

Walk around Standard Bank Art Gallery’s 3D experience which<br />

showcases its Lumières d’Afriques Exhibition. Click on selected tiles<br />

to stand in front of each artwork and read about the artist and the<br />

work itself. There are 54 works from artists across the African continent<br />

to marvel at. All the pieces were made under the theme, The Light of<br />

Africa. Details: my.matterport.com/show/?m=KoMFpZVX3JY<br />

The Big Flower Fight is going to be a big<br />

blooming joy to watch. This is to flower lovers<br />

what The Great British Bake Off is to bakers. It’s<br />

a (friendly) floral fight between 10 pairs of<br />

florists, sculptors and garden designers, who<br />

pull out all the stops to see who can build the<br />

biggest, boldest and most beautiful garden<br />

sculptures. There are challenges including<br />

woodwork, floristry and landscaping, and the<br />

competitors will be encouraged to use plants<br />

and materials that are earth-friendly. Each<br />

week a team will be eliminated ... leading up<br />

to an exciting floral finale, when one team<br />

will win the flower crown! It started on May<br />

18 on Netflix which means you’ve got a few<br />

episodes to binge watch.<br />
