WORLDART is a vibrant Cape Town based gallery that specialises in contemporary art with a leaning towards urban and pop art.
WORLDART specialises in managing and marketing contemporary South African artists and their work, catering to the needs of those who appreciate and acquire art. Operating from its premises in Cape Town’s CBD, WORLDART introduces local and international buyers to exciting new works in an intimate gallery space and regularly hosts exhibitions in various venues in South Africa. It also assists clients in sourcing quality artworks for corporate and private art collections.
Established in 2004, this gallery has since become one of the premier art galleries in Cape Town. The art shown is contemporary with a leaning towards urban and pop styles in painting.
Claude Chandler had an eventful two years since his last solo exhibition in 2017. The list includes an
artist’s residency in Germany which lead to gallery representation in Europe, exhibiting in Paris at
the prestigious AKAA Art Fair.
Thursday 7 March sees the opening of a new solo exhibition, his fourth since 2015 when WORLDART hosted his first show. The exhibition will be titled Hyperlink and will run till 28 March.
Chandler has the following to say about this show:
“ In 2012 I moved to Cape Town to begin a new life and pursue my fine art career. During that year, I created a painting that featured Donald Duck and two of my cousins. This artwork would later become a very important personal piece as it marked the presence of important events that marked
my life that year.
I looked back at this painting as the starting point/basis for this exhibition. I wanted to create a time-line of artworks leading up to my recent marriage. In a way this is an altered and manipulated personal retrospective. I have transformed and revisited previous works and themes which I viewed as landmarks in my personal life or artistic career. The paintings became hyperlinks feeding into one another.”
