    OUR STORY

    The Melrose Gallery is one of South Africa's most dynamic contemporary galleries, championing artists from across the continent and the diaspora.

    Established in 2016, the gallery has developed a solid reputation for its local and international programme of exhibitions, art fairs, and museum shows.

    With a gallery located in Johannesburg and another opening in San Francisco in February 2026, The Melrose Gallery provides a valuable platform for the amplification of voices who reflect the depth and diversity of Pan African Contemporary Art.

    Exclusive representatives of Esther Mahlangu, the globally acclaimed visual artist, our stable includes several of South Africa’s most established artists and an exciting young guard who are swiftly emerging to take their much deserved places on the global stage.
