Nel Gallery is centrally located on the corner of Long and Church Streets in Cape Town. It is owned and directed by artist Luan Nel alongside his partner and spouse Neil Pendock. The gallery usually has an ongoing group hang of mostly local artists, but also artists from the rest of the country and further afield. In addition to the group hang they host solo and two-person exhibitions at regular intervals throughout the year.
The gallery is open during regular gallery hours and adheres to COVID-19 regulations. Please wear a mask, sanitise your hands upon entry and always practice social distancing.
This month Nel hosts 'Echoes of My Mind', a solo exhibition by the local artist Luxolo Witvoet. The artist has made a name for himself in the field of photography, but he is in fact a multi-disciplinary artist and this will be his first solo exhibition of paintings. A versatile talent, he has also been exploring the field of cartoon and animation. All three of these interests are brought together through his translation to painting. Luxolo Witvoet's work carries humour throughout yet finely balances a sense of pathos and always offers hope and redemption to those who choose to participate.
