if its wednesday this must be the joburg fringe!

(if its tuesday this must be belgium- a '60s movie title)

the fringe is going on the road!

already sure are the JAG - Johannesburg Art Gallery, (see our rekkie film- that was filmed on the way there), The Bioscope @ Arts on Main,

Right on the Rim @ Arts on Main, the Mofolo Art Centre in Soweto and AngloGold Ashanti in the Turbine Hall in Newtown. and hoping to bag the Bag Factory, and if only for the status, the Troyeville Hotel!

and ofcourse we are on the look-out for a space in the heart of the art week in sandton...

today its friday- time to go get a good dose of adrenalin in the jozi traffic...

the artists from inside africa

we've decided to go with the 2010 spirit, and have 11 visitors and 11 locals

here the locals:

Giulio Biccari

Peter Jones

Aryan Kaganof

Kemang Wa Lehulere

George Mahashe

Thando Mama

Khanyisile Mbongwa & James Tayler

Robert Mills

Steve Kwena Mokoena

Nicky Newman

Kyle Southgate

Garfield Taylor

Robert Weinek

and our 11th visitor: Felix Walser

sharp cool

selecting the local artists for the fringe has been hard work, but finally we have the two sides complete.
next: the list of venues
(photo: checked out the possibility of a screening at the Top Star- the Joburg landmark drive-in on top of a mine dump in Selby: half the mine dump already bitten away for re-processing)

the thing about getting the list together of the south african artists is quite complex...
that is basically the whole explanation in a nutshell.
so once again, and in the mean time, join us while we go looking for a possible venue for the joburg fringe VIDEOart 2010!
