Gallery 2

Gallery 2 Over the last 30 years, Gallery 2 has established itself as one of South Africa’s leading fine art Galleries.

Over the last 20 years, Gallery 2 (previously known as Gallery at the Square on Nelson Mandela Square) has established itself as one of South Africa’s leading fine art galleries. Built on a strong affection for the arts, it seeks to promote contemporary South African artists across a variety of disciplines, focusing particularly on the promotion and support of young up-coming artists. In May 2010,

the gallery relocated to what has become known as the “Art Strip” on Jan Smuts avenue in Parkwood, Johannesburg. Rebranded as Gallery 2, it continues to draw on the ever-present talent and energy of South Africa’s visual artists, finding its niche within the South African art market, as well as providing an environment that is enjoyed and supported by artists, private and corporate patrons alike. The gallery also provides an art consultancy service. We have provided this service successfully to many private collectors, and have also been appointed as art consultants and suppliers for various corporate projects and collections.

Karin Daymond, West Facing Slope - Cederberg, Oil on canvas, 90 x 110cm, 2026, Framed

“I am increasingly drawn to places that feel as if they harbour secrets which we may never fully uncover. It is as if I have been exploring landscapes under a microscope, to peer into them with curiosity and joy, looking for patterns and anomalies which give clues about how things are composed. These are places with high concentrations of endemism; species that are not found anywhere else. They require specific conditions in which to thrive, and they tell us a lot about the place where they grow. And such places tell us about ourselves, if we listen carefully.”

“This is a continuous journey between the present, the past, the flesh, and the afterlife. The lingering of memories in certain spaces, the longing of being seen and needed.”

Jenny Stadler, Cleo’s Garden , oil on canvas, 120 x 120cm, 2026

Having established herself in the art scene, Stadler’s work continues to grow and manifest.
The work is fresh and full of life. From large bold brush strokes to the small line details, wrapped between impasto mark making, the works are filled with an energy and liveliness where the movement and rhythm in the works flows seamlessly.

Nhlanhla Nhlapo, Rotten Apple, Dump Cane and Abandoned Associate Flag, Oil on canvas, 80 x 80cm, 2026

The artist draws inspiration from landscape paintings, portraits and photographs from his family photo albums and the immediate surroundings of his hometown Frankfort in the Free State. The imagery deals with concepts of nostalgia, community, survival and decolonization. Portrait, interior, exterior and landscape juxtapose to underline the fugitive nature of time.
