    The Bag Factory holds regular exhibitions in its gallery space. An important contribution to the Johannesburg art scene, these shows provide a platform for international artists whose work might not otherwise be seen in Johannesburg. Our commitment to new forms of expression means that we are always open to laboratory-style experiments, which offer artists the opportunity to pioneer unmapped territory, to test their limits and challenge themselves and their audiences. From a wacky site-specific food installations to a live carnival igniting the night streets of Fordsburg, our exhibition programme has always offered viewers a taste of the unexpected.
