GALLERY GUIDE | WESTERN CAPE Infecting the City (The Spier Public Arts Festival) 21-26 February, Infecting The City 2011, themed ‘Treasure’, will celebrate, re-imagine and burst open Cape Town’s - and more broadly South Africa’s – trove of diverse cultures, traditions and heritages in unexpectedly contagious ways. Its intent is to re-claim public space for the public and allow for an unusual way of interacting with their city. Presented by the Africa Centre, this out-of-the-ordinary public arts festival places provocative, innovative art in the communal spaces of the City’s Central Business District (CBD). Everything on the festival programme is free and accessible to everybody. Cape Town Station and City Centre. www.infectingthecity.com Infin Art Gallery A gallery of work by local artists.
