ENTERTAINMENT NEWS - Rare Gallery doesn’t just showcase talented artists; it’s a completely immersive experience where vivid artworks segue into a carefully curated collection of couture fashion.
This art gallery creates a unique phenomenon where one is both an observer and a participant—intrinsic to the present, the art, the fashion, and the ink (yes, there is also a micro tattoo parlour).
While the gallery is certainly attracting Cape Town’s coolest cognoscenti and influencers, it is far more than a destination. It is a rare visual experience. and a sensory delight.
And appropriately, it is named Rare Gallery.
Founder Henry explains: “Rare Gallery is a collective of different worlds. We have combined high-end art with luxury couture to bring a whole new rare experience, something neither Cape Town nor South Africa has seen yet.”
Henry’s passion for expression and his distinctive sense of style carried over into the gallery, which officially opened on 17 June 2022.
The art
The current exhibition, showing until early January, showcases artists such as Gavin Thomson, Nicola Roos, Fhatuwani Mukheli and Buqaqawuli Nobakada.
New artists are exhibited every two months.
“One of our goals is to support upcoming arcane artists who don’t have the platform to get their work and name out there,” says Henry. “We have the perfect platform to help young, creative individuals with a lot of potential garner experience and bring their work to the attention of the world.”
