Everard Read Gallery | The Sculpture Garden

Everard Read Gallery | Sculpture Garden

For the 2024 edition of RMB Latitudes, Everard Read Gallery has curated a presentation of more than 20 outdoor sculptural works, set throughout the beautiful Shepstone Gardens. Of the decision to present sculpture, curator Stephanie Le Roy said the venue for the fair offered a strong prompt. “Shepstone Gardens provides a wonderful, almost other-worldly backdrop that seamlessly integrates art with nature, showcasing how sculpture can really shine outdoors.” 

Be sure to browse the gardens to view works by Atang Tshikare, Brett Murray, Nicci Bailey, Githan Coopoo, Rina Stutzer, Michael MacGarry, Deborah Bell, Nandipha Mntambo, Gail Catlin, Norman Catherine, Guy Pierre Du Toit, Dylan Lewis, Shany Van Den Berg, Jop Kunneke and Angus Taylor.

Few people ever have the opportunity to try their hand at fashioning an object out of stone, wood or clay. Sculptures can come across as the ‘artistic other’ – the sort of work that's only found in museums or the landscaped gardens of the mega-wealthy. By comparison, we all grow up scribbling marks and splatting colour into schoolbooks. Equally, we spend all our days looking at flat images on screens and so, strokes of paint filling a flat canvas or lines of charcoal on paper are instinctively familiar.

But take a walk through the Everard Read sculpture garden at this year’s RMB Latitude’s Art Fair in sunny Joburg and you’ll realise that these three-dimensional artworks are just as accessible and engaging as paintings. The pieces dotted amongst the lush foliage of Shepstone Gardens will offer a collective sense of form, texture and impressive craftsmanship guaranteed to bring the medium to life. Whether you’re a fan of abstraction, figures or simply art that makes you smile, we think you'll fall in love with at least one of the works on show.

Featured artists include Atang Tshikare, Deborah Bell, Githan Coopoo, Gail Catlin and Nandipha Mntambo, and the Everard Read Johannesburg team will be on hand to chat to you about all the pieces on display.

Lucinda Mudge x Frédéric Malle. Elsewhere at the fair, you don’t want to miss the combination of 6 magnificent Lucinda Mudge ceramics that have been paired with corresponding perfumes from cult French fragrance brand, Frédéric Malle. As always, Mudge’s works are gutsy, humorous, and fantastically fashioned. Take a gander (and a spritz) and then decide which vase and scent combo floats your boat most.

This show runs from 22 - 26 May 2024
