The Artist Proof Studio Gallery showcases the work of students and graduates, as well as other Artist
Proof Studio-affiliated printmakers, by exhibiting and promoting prints and offering opportunities for
emerging artists to market their work. The curators and gallery staff offer tours of the studio and
the Gallery, enabling visitors to experience the vibrancy and energy of Artist Proof Studio as well as
to engage with a range of artists, teachers, and printmakers.
Artist Proof Studio Gallery holds regular exhibitions and members of the public are always welcome.
These may be solo or group exhibitions such as our opening one of 2009 showing work by several artists
who have printed in the Pro-Print Studio and including two of our artist/print technicians, Pontsho
Sikhosana and Motsamai Thabane.
A highlight of each year is our third-year student exhibition held annually in November to showcase
the exceptional portfolios of our graduating students. An investment in emerging young artists today
is both financially and socially rewarding. Collecting their prints helps to promote their
careers in South Africa, and offers opportunities for collectors to obtain their work while it is
still affordable and before they gain international recognition.
Works on paper can be purchased from our Gallery exhibitions and print drawers at
affordable prices. Up-and-coming young artists are profiled on the Artist Proof Studio website where
examples of their work can be viewed.
The Gallery is open Tuesday to Friday, 9h00 to 16h00,
and Saturday, 10h00 to 15h00 and closed on Mondays for administrative purposes.
