Submitting the form sends your request to the gallery and takes you to a confirmation page. It does not create an account, booking or subscription.

Before you write

A few practical notes help us route your message to the right person at the gallery. None of this is a requirement. If you would rather just describe what you need in your own words, that works too.

What you are asking about

Say whether your enquiry is about the Saturday walk-through, a studio visit with a resident artist, the seasonal catalogue, or a print edition. Each one is handled by a different part of the gallery programme, so naming it early saves a round of email.

Dates and timing

If you have a date in mind, put it in the preferred date field. It does not have to be fixed. A rough week or month is enough for us to check it against the current hang and the four seasonal shows.

Group size and access

Walk-throughs are kept small so there is time to stand in front of individual plates. Tell us how many people are coming and anything we should know about access, seating or how long you can stay.

Specific works or catalogue entries

If your question is about one photograph, linocut or painting, name it as it appears in the catalogue. Each entry records the maker, the medium, the year and where the work was made, which is usually enough for us to find it.

Photographs of a place

If you are writing about a site, a fence line or a structure you would like considered, a few plain photographs help. Wide views and close details are both useful, and a note on where the frame was taken keeps the record accurate.

What you hope to get back

A catalogue by email, a place on a walk-through, a studio visit, or simply an answer to a question about a work. Saying which one you are after keeps the reply useful. We do not promise a set reply time.

Where to send it

The form on this page sends a plain enquiry and shows a confirmation page once it has been received. It does not create an account, a booking or a subscription. You can also write directly to contact@putnamfarms.com or call +27 62 180 3972.

Postal address: The Firs, 32A Cradock Avenue, Rosebank, Johannesburg, 2196, South Africa.

Reaching the gallery

Write to us in your own words. Tell us which exhibition you are following, which work or catalogue entry you have in mind, or which of the three routes below fits your visit. A plain message is enough.

We read enquiries as they arrive. Nothing here creates an account, a booking or a subscription, and we do not promise a reply by a set date.
