Outside the white cube, art learns to breathe again
The article recounts a visit to an outdoor group exhibition titled "Experiment. Introduce. Enjoy," organized by artist manager Togo Langa at his home "Kwa Langa" in North West province, South Africa. The show features works by artists such as Mankebe Seakgoe and Keabetswe Seema, installed both indoors and outdoors, deliberately moving away from the traditional white-cube gallery setting. The author reflects on the sensory experience of viewing art in nature—sunlight, wind, sounds of cows and laughter—and how this environment changes the perception of the artworks.
