Join us in Joburg - /1


I dream about South Africa.

But why just dreaming? Why don't we go soon? End of summer in Europe is the beginning of the austral spring in Johannesburg... Hum. Let's plan.

First 'rendez-vous': The Joburg Art Fair late September. 2012/13 is a special year for South Africa and France as the two countries focus on each other's cultures. The South African season in France in just beginning this spring. In South Africa, people are getting ready for their own art fair in one of the most vibrant city in Africa.

The 2013 FNB Joburg Art Fair will take place between the 27th and the 29th of September. Let's bet we'll meet there...
