Art

The spaces of the Spier Hotel and conferencing rooms feature art from the Spier Collection — one of the most extensive collections of contemporary South African art in the country.

Spier believes that the visual arts can provide both guests and staff with new insights, and challenge us to take a fresh look at our world and environment. Because of this, it is a powerful tool for transformation.

Only a small selection is on display at any one time, and the work is rotated on an annual basis to give exposure to as many SA artists as possible, and to keep the spaces fresh and alive for visitors and staff. The art chosen for display aims to show the richness and diversity of the SA experience and artistic talent.

Regular exhibitions are held in the Spier Old Wine Cellar Gallery. These also showcase works from the Spier Collection, and have an educational focus.

In addition, Spier supports a number of art events that take place off the estate:
