The dynamic exhibition programme is in keeping with the Standard Bank’s aim of promoting
South African art and supporting cultural development.
Popular events include exhibitions by key contemporary artists such as Karel Nel,
Johannes Phokela, Willem Boshoff and Marlene Dumas, the annual exhibition by the
Standard Bank Young Artist Award winner, and exhibitions by masters such as Irma
Stern, Gerard Sekoto and Alexis Preller.
In 2000 the first show in South Africa of original works by a 20th century European
artist was the Marc Chagall exhibition, followed by Miro in 2002 and the ground-breaking
Picasso and Africa in 2006.
