South African Art

Explore the Diverse Heritage of South African Art by visiting the MAE FLYNN Gallery in Ixelles where you can discover a curated selection of artwork from South African artists spanning from traditional to contemporary and emerging styles.  Traditional South African art encompasses a wide range of forms, including sculpture, pottery, basketry, and textiles. Each of the country's diverse ethnic groups contributes its own unique aesthetic traditions, often infused with symbolic meaning, inspired by local terroir, ecology, nature and light.

Mae Flynn's commitment to sourcing art from different artists is driven by a desire to celebrate diversity and support emerging talent. Mae Flynn offers a broad range of perspectives, styles, and voices, a mirror to South African culture. This promotes inclusivity and representation within the art world and Brussels culture. By supporting these artists the Mae Flynn space nurtures the mycelium ecosystem of creativity, providing opportunities for emerging talents to gain exposure and recognition. Mae Flynn's collection is dynamic and reflective of the ever-evolving landscape of contemporary art.
