I Art Joburg photo documentary comes to Cape Town

In September 2012, I Art Joburg brought five world-renowned artists to the Maboneng Precinct, East Joburg to paint a number of large-scale murals as an ode to the bustling metropole. Now, an exhibition of Martha Cooper's photo documentary of the mural art project will be moving from its former home at adidas' Area3 in the Maboneng Precinct to Cape Town in March.

Artists included Steve "Espo"' Powers (New York) who painted two Espo-typographic-style murals, Remed (Madrid) who specialises in raw African-inspired cubism, ROA (Belgium) whose work always depicts animals, and Martha Cooper (New York) who documented the entire community project; as well as local artists Cameron Platter (Durban) and Falko (Cape Town) who were also commissioned to represent their own interpretations.
