Graham Contemporary is a Johannesburg based gallery that shows artwork by emergent, mid-career and established South African as well as diasporic African artists living and working in South Africa.

The gallery is housed in Johannesburg’s commercial hub and mixed-use complex Hyde Park, accessible by both serious art collectors and the centre’s numerous pedestrian visitors. With a stable of artists that ranges in style, genre and mediums, Graham Contemporary regularly exhibits sculptural works, photography, painting, and mixed media in a traditional white-cube lay out that is amply large and able to comfortably accommodate works of all scales and mediums.

 Founded by Graham Britz, the gallery is Britz’s new commercial effort after over 30 years as a dealer of South African modernist works. He has transacted on significant deals of artworks by the celebrated and academically recognised artists Irma Stern, Maggie Laubser and Jacob Pierneef, among others. He has been recognised by his peers for advocating for greater recognition of their historic and commercial value, aiding in the development of their market both regionally and internationally. He has also devoted significant efforts and resources to the production of major books on both modernist and contemporary South African artists through the commissioning of research, essays and catalogues over the past two decades.
