The City of Johannesburg reassures the public and the art community that all necessary measures are being taken to ensure the proper care and security of the Johannesburg Art Gallery (JAG) collection during its relocation and refurbishment process. Despite concerns raised by certain stakeholders, the City emphasises that extensive consultations have been conducted and decisions are made in alignment with its authority and responsibilities. We note with dismay the false statements on the state of readiness of the relocation sites.
