Contemporary African art has a new home at the southernmost tip of the continent. The Zeitz Museum of Modern Contemporary African Art, also known as the Zeitz MOCAA, opened it’s doors in Cape Town, South Africa on September 15.

Before the official opening, journalists had a sneak preview of the museum’s first exhibition which is housed at the V&A Waterfront’s historic grain silo complex, repurposed through a design by Heatherwick Studio to house the museum.
