Johannesburg
Art Experience
About the experience - Johannesburg’s Art scene is one that is Afro-cosmopolitan and inspired by the city’s vibrancy and culture.
On this experience we bring the clients not only closer to the Art but to the people behind the Art; guests get a chance to meet and greet the Artist and get an insight behind every piece.
The space we will be visiting on this Art Experience are:
Keyes Art Mile
The Leonardo Gallery
Transwerk at Con Hill
Ellis House
Living Artist Emporium
Victoria Yard
The Leonardo Gallery
The Leonardo Gallery was designed to create an open clean and unobtrusive space for the artwork to be exhibited without the interference of outside distractions. Like a clean canvas to be filled with brushstrokes, it enhances the artworks and gives them the space to exhibit what the artists wanted to portray in their artworks. The gallery is all about the artwork and the visions of the artists.
In The Leonardo gallery, you will find many different genres of art. There are so many forms of art and commonly only a few ever get a chance to be exhibited, therefore we tried to introduce more variety by adding art mediums like photography, mosaic, art jewelry, woodwork, food, music and wine.
The collector and investor will find the comfortable and welcoming atmosphere relaxing without pressure while you sip a good cup of tea or coffee and enjoy yet another art form – good food.
At the Leonardo gallery, you will be able to linger and enjoy the art in its true form and to experience the joy of acquiring a piece of art that you can relate to.
Keys Art mile
Keyes Art Mile hosts Art and Design galleries and exhibition spaces, showcasing local and international artists and designers.
Cafés, coffee-on-the-go, artisan eateries, and a burger joint, as well as vibrant shops and spaces new to the Johannesburg scene, compliment the art-focused experience
TRANSWERK at Con hill
Located within the Constitution Hill precinct, is a striking Art Deco building: Transwerke.
Transwerke was designed in 1939 by acclaimed architect Gordon Leith, back then it was the Queen Victoria Maternity Hospital as well as a residence for midwives. The building closed in 1983 and Transwerke sat vacant. In 2018 this majestic building was converted into a creative hub for visual artists, designers, jewelry manufacturers, and other creative sector workers.
Ellis house
Ellis house art building resides in the inner-city neighbourhood of
Doornfontein, bursting with things to see and experience. The Ellis house art building is a collective creative energy of ART and ARTISTS in the city of Johannesburg. The neighbourhood is an active and connected community, thriving on a creative urban culture. Street art has turned this neighbourhood into a place for the people, with a selection of restaurants and eateries, galleries and markets - offering plenty of choice for a large residential community.
The space is also home to the artist which gives it a very friendly and unique feel to it which really makes guests feel connected to the Artist and the space
Living Artist Emporium
The space focuses on the emerging artists and showcases cutting-edge contemporary art within the LAE sphere.
Living Artist Emporium was established to develop emerging artists via a sustainable platform that provides materials, workspaces, events, exhibition outlets, and resources. Lack of resources, guidance, and artistic direction are all factors emerging artists are facing today. Living Artist Emporium (LAE) is addressing these challenges by supplying the necessary infrastructure, guidance, and tools to enable emerging artists to create cutting-edge contemporary art and build their careers.
With this platform, LAE is creating new ground in the art industry by offering high-quality contemporary art as an investment for the future and to make art accessible to all.
Today, Living Artists Emporium is a leading specialist in Emerging Contemporary Art
Victoria Yard
Victoria Yard Was a dilapidated light industrial complex in Lorentzville, originally housing the New York Steam Laundry. A friend of Brian’s was looking at the site in terms of a low-cost housing project but Brian saw the potential for a communal artisanal space as well as a food farm and entertainment space. The space is now home to some of the top artists in Johannesburg.
