    For those who are not satisfied with simply enjoying art from their screens, or tired of packing into the world’s busiest art fairs, we have a solution for you.

     

    At Montague Contemporary, we are on a mission to bridge the gap between artists and collectors, to build a sense of community and stewardship that outlives the hype. We believe there is no substitute for real life experience and that understanding “provenance” begins with understanding the artist.

     

    Introducing Montague Contemporary Journeys, a bespoke series of trips bringing artists, collectors, and enthusiasts together where the story begins - in Africa.

    In December 2020, we embarked on a 12--day holistic journey across Morocco - visiting leading galleries in Casablanca for an insider's view into the hot contemporary African art market; getting lost in time with a mesmerizing trip through the cities and towns of the remote Atlas Mountains; a celebratory jaunt for New Year’s to a tented camp in the Sahara desert; a faced-past adventure in the vibrant city of Marrakech, where we provided unparalleled insider access to the fast emerging contemporary art scene; and finally ended our stay in the seaside oasis of Tangiers and the 15th century village of Chefchaouen.
