Cape Town Art Fair appointments announced
The Cape Town Art Fair is to take place from 19 to 21 February, 2016, at the Cape Town International Convention Centre (CTICC) and Matthew Partridge has been appointed Fair Director and Laura Vincenti as the Architect and Special Projects Manager. Together they will join Fair Manager, Liza Dyason to form the team that will take the Cape Town Art Fair forward.
Holding a Master's Degree in Art History from Wits University, Partridge has worked as a writer, critic and journalist for publications that include the Financial Mail, Business Day, The Sunday Times and the Mail & Guardian.
With 10 years of experience working as the Principal Consult Architect for Artissima in Tornio, Italy, Vincenti brings with her a working knowledge of international models that will provide the skills needed to bring the Cape Town Art Fair to eyes of the art world.
Speaking about these two new additions to the FMEA team, Dyason said: "With Cape Town providing a beautiful backdrop and with a growing contemporary art market in Africa, the fair will build on its success and provide a space where established and new collectors can sample the very best of what Africa has to offer the art world."
