Luan Nel

South African 1971- 

Luan Nel views painting as his first language but also works in installation, photography, and performance. Nel speaks to the viewer in an ever-revealing way, creating a conversation, philosophy, and work that draws on personal and collective memory. Nel attended the Rijksakademie van Beeldende Kunsten in Amsterdam in 1998 and 1999 under the guidance of the Belgian painter Luc Tuymans. He has exhibited alongside luminaries Louise Bourgeois and Michelangelo Pistoletto. Collections include The Smithsonian, The Victoria & Albert Museum, The Gauteng Legislature, The President’s office, Spier, Sanlam, KPMG, SABC, Sasol and many private collections.
