The Javett Art Centre at the University of Pretoria will host 'Between Here and Elsewhere,' an exhibition featuring the Top 10 artists from the 2025/26 Tlhagella Incubation Programme. Curated by Puleng Plessie, the show opens on 1 May 2026 and presents works that explore themes of presence, memory, and belonging through a polyphonic, multi-perspectival approach.
This exhibition matters because it marks a significant moment for a new generation of artists from underrepresented contexts, nurtured through mentorship and curatorial training. By foregrounding voices that reimagine in-between spaces, 'Between Here and Elsewhere' asserts that these artists are not merely emerging but actively shaping contemporary art discourse, challenging traditional narratives of visibility and agency.
