BETWEEN SHADOWS

The Leeuwenhof Slave Quarters Remembrance Gallery

Every first Saturday from:
7.10.23 - 31.12.23
Time: 10am - 2pm

We invite you to join us every first Saturday of the month for “Between Shadows” at The Leeuwenhof Slave Quarters Remembrance Gallery curated by the AVA.

The Slave Quarters at the Premier of the Western Cape’s residence have been reimagined and transformed into an art gallery and site of remembrance, as visitors are invited to pay tribute to the many people who once worked and lived there, enslaved. The Association for Visual Arts was mandated to curate and manage five exhibitions of contemporary art to activate, visually, the research undertaken and showcased by the Cape Town Museum on the history of slavery with an emphasis on people enslaved at Leeuwenhof Estate. This is a project of the Western Cape Department of Cultural Affairs and Sport.

‘Between Shadows’ include the following artists - Ashley Walters, Boyce Magandela, Graeme Williams, Haroon Gunn-Salie, Igshaan Adams, Rory Emmett, Ruth Motau, Sitaara Stodel and Zyma Amien.

Entrance to First Saturday public viewings is free, but bookings are essential by 12am Friday the first Saturday of each month:
