Internationally renowned artist Kim Donaldson has announced that he will have an exhibition of his work at the Imbizo Gallery in Ballito on December 13 at 6:30pm for the first time since 1987.
The show will consist of Donaldson’s signature pastel works, along with large contemporary oil paintings.
The reputation Kim Donaldson has built since turning professional in 1978 speaks for itself; more than 60 exhibitions in 20 years have ensured Kim’s work has been seen the world over.
He has been featured in four books, participated in numerous one man shows and group exhibitions throughout Europe and America and has sold his works in the world’s most prestigious auction houses including Sotheby’s, Christie’s, Bonhams & Philips.
His message and passion for Africa, the people and animals within it has remained irrepressible. Kim’s story captivated thousands in his book, Africa, An Artist’s Journal, which took him almost five years to complete.
Kim designed, wrote and illustrated the book, which was a best seller in five countries and won the prestigious Victoria & Albert Museum book award for design. It has become the number one selling artist’s book of all time and has been published in three languages.
