Culturally Arts Collective always has something exciting on offer, with immersive exhibitions and celebrations of diversity and subversive themes in art happening all year round on its digital platforms. This summer is marked by another worthy virtual art show opened at the Milostka Center for Exhibitions. Welcome the multi-disciplinary artist Hazel Chen and her deeply honest self-exploration in the “Boundaries of Being” exhibition.

As the vibrant Dog Show at Nel has reached its logical ending, the South African gallery is back with the exciting news about upcoming projects and events. August, in particular, is marked by Nel’s participation in Heat, a local winter arts festival unifying exhibitions at 13 galleries and museums. So, what should you know about the festival to plan your art exploration adventures in Cape Town next month?

Art can take different forms, depending on how far an artist’s creative imagination can take it. Fine Art Shippers, an art logistics company based in New York, has always been at the forefront of promoting art and contributing to its visibility and accessibility to audiences. That’s how the “Da Race on Wheels” van, a unique art project created in collaboration with the renowned artist Mitchell Schorr, has become a one-of-a-kind object pushing the boundaries of street art.

Culturally Arts Collective is a non-profit entity that actively promotes artists from all corners of the globe and increases their visibility by means of digitalizing their artwork and giving them global outreach. “Fragments of Now” by Marina Chisty is a new virtual show presented by Culturally Arts Collective, which is already on view at the Milostka Center for Exhibitions. Here is what you need to know about the exhibition and the artist behind it. 

Art created in traditional media is usually confined to the place of its physical display in terms of outreach and visibility. However, due to the efforts of Culturally Arts Collective, thousands of art objects have become accessible on a global scale, without geographical limitations and the need to travel across long distances. The organization partners with artists in various parts of the world to digitize their works and display them in a virtual gallery. This time, Culturally Arts Collective has presented “Liminal Portrayal,” a solo exhibition by Sampy Sicada.

Culturally Arts Collective has presented a new exhibition replication at the digital Hanbell Gallery. Titled “Boys Wanna Get With Me, Girls Wanna Get With Me,” it is a solo exhibition by Sandy Cohen, featuring many iconic works by the established artist.

While the Northern Hemisphere celebrates the hot summer season, South Africa is entering a winter season, which is, however, expected to be no less exciting. Nel, a Cape Town-based gallery, opens the season with a new, unusual event – the Dog Show. As the gallery’s curators confide, the exhibition has been conceived since the very moment of Nel’s opening, but the schedule was too tight to give it enough space and time. This African winter finally offered a spot for the anticipated Dog Show at Nel, which opened its doors on June 5, 2025.
