A new home for African creativity: A cultural platform by Thebe Magugu dedicated to fashion, art and creative exchange
INAUGURAL EXHIBITION “BY OUR OWN HANDS” PRESENTED IN PARTNERSHIP WITH SOUTHERN GUILD, ON VIEW UNTIL THE END OF APRIL
Mount Nelson, A Belmond Hotel, Cape Town, in collaboration with visionary South African designer Thebe Magugu, has officially opened MAGUGU HOUSE CAPE TOWN, a dynamic concept store and cultural hub conceived as a platform for fashion, art and creative exchange.
The space launches with its inaugural exhibition, “By Our Own Hands”, presented in partnership with Southern Guild and co-curated by Thebe Magugu alongside Contemporary African Art Specialist Julia Buchanan. Bringing together the works of Zanele Muholi and Zizipho Poswa with Magugu’s exploration of fashion as ritual practice, the exhibition reflects on making as a form of authorship, healing and resistance. Each artist approaches material and adornment as carriers of lineage, spirit and self-sovereignty.

- WHERE: Mount Nelson, A Belmond Hotel – 76 Orange St, Gardens, Cape Town, South Africa
