The university town of Stellenbosch is a very special place and home to many artists.

We present artists of the Stellenbosch area
and are busy compiling a list of artists

  • who live or have lived in Stellenbosch
  • who worked or studied here and
  • who have already exhibited their work in a renown gallery

These pages will be included in a book and on CD, Stellenbosch Artists. See an example
Artists will get a double page in the book with many photos of their work. If you want to feature in the book, please contact us now. Stellenbosch Artists get a free page in this site until further notice.
Your suggestions are very welcome!
You are invited to order your own gallery at a discount! See 2 examples Strijdom and Peter

Quote of the day:
There is no abstract art. You must always start with something. Afterward you can remove all traces of reality.
Pablo Picasso

There are painters who transform the sun to a yellow spot, but there are others who with the help of their art and their intelligence, transform a yellow spot into the sun.
Pablo Picasso
Hace falta mucho, mucho tiempo para ser joven
Pablo Picasso
It takes a very long time to become young
