Emerging artists to look out for

The revamping of the FNB Art Joburg fair, now under new ownership, was one of the highlights of the local art scene this year.finweek spoke to various art market participants about the past year’s groundbreaking artists, those whose works are deemed as novel and emerging.

“As a rule of thumb… to be considered an emerging artist in places like Germany, one’s artistic career must have spanned over ten years,” says Robin Sher, head of communications at the Goodman Gallery.

In some instances, you might find that an artist has work spanning a couple of years but has only just had their biggest year as an artist, now finally making them an emerging artist, says Alastair Meredith, an art specialist at Strauss & Co.
