Joburg’s gem of an art space—Scapegoat Gallery— recently got an A-list visit from supermodel and actress Cara Delevigne and famed photographer David Yarrow!
Johannesburg, South Africa (30 September 2024) — South African premiere international pop art gallery, Scapegoat Gallery, recently got an A-list visit from supermodel and actress Cara Delevigne and famed photographer David Yarrow in what was a fabulous occasion celebrating visual drama, pop culture and the culmination of the two in Johannesburg.
The art space, based in Hyde Park Corner, got to enjoy the honour of hosting David in an event dubbed ‘One Night Only’ (an indicator of how quick his visit was).
The gallery was delighted that David then hosted the equally famous Cara in the gallery that’s given pop culture a decorated home in the City of Gold. The two big names visited to stage and photograph astounding visual dramas in a desert setting, with David’s latest and previous works featuring Cara as a character in historical settings presented.
“For one night only they took time out of their busy schedule to meet our gallery friends and collectors, to talk about David’s love of nature, and the way that he is able to picture human experience in the context of the rugged and dramatic world around us,” Scapegoat’s Lizelle Neofytou tells Good Things Guy.
“[Cara] has appeared in his large-scale photographs playing amazing personalities like Bonnie Parker from the movie Bonnie and Clyde, to Oliver Twist, to Thomas Shelby in Peaky Blinders. David Yarrow’s renowned photographs imagine extraordinary women in equally-extraordinary popular culture situations.
“We have works by Yarrow that imagine Cindy Crawford in situations from Alfred Hitchcock’s movie North by Northwest of 1959. This dovetails perfectly with our mission as an unparalleled pop art gallery,” Lizelle adds.
The gallery has thanked David and Cara for their time, adding that it gives them great pleasure to bring together artists and art lovers to celebrate what they believe to be the pinnacle of artistic achievement!
