Louis Jansen van Vuuren

South African 1949- 


“My life has always, and still today, holds a serendipitous element – people always inspired and supported me in the quest of becoming an artist.” –Louis Jansen van Vuuren

Born in Middelburg, Mpumalanga, Louis Jansen van Vuuren is a descendant of Dutch and French immigrants. The un-nameable urge to paint and document what was around him and interpret his personal vision through colour and feeling was a calling from a young age. His first solo exhibition in his hometown at age 17 marked the beginning of the critical and commercial success to come. He went on to study art and design at Stellenbosch University winning prizes, awards and scholarships. The artist has participated in numerous exhibitions in South Africa and around the world.
