Only if you can afford it you deserve it

ANDRÉ NAUDE
12 March 2021
André Naude, above all, concerns himself with the process of painting, with his inimitable palette that uses the most unassuming colours in such a way that they dance with energy and glow with richness. His secret compassion for his sharp-voiced leitmotif, for the paint and the colour, results in a visual internationalism, a quality of work that transcends the possibility of ever being called endemic or myopic.
The story is in the telling, bitter and delicious, the darkness disguised with seductive colour and luscious painterly marks, a dichotomy of fatalistic protest and an optimism of hope.
André Naude has been painting, educating, printmaking, collaborating, judging national art competitions, curating, and spending time abroad for at least three decades.
He has participated in approximately 30 solo exhibitions and 50 group shows in South Africa and in America, Europe, the Middle East and the Far East, including New York, Washington DC, Toronto, Paris, Hamburg, Leverkussen, Riberac, Barcelona, Budapest, Bangladesh, Algarve, Lisbon and Beijing.
Naude has presented solo shows at the Pretoria Art Museum, the University of Pretoria, AVA Gallery Cape Town, NSA Gallery Durban, the University of Johannesburg art gallery, ABSA gallery, SASOL Museum, Stellenbosch and Galeria Blau in Palma, Majorca, amongst others.
His work can be found in the Iziko Museum in Cape Town, Durban Art Museum, Pretoria Art Museum, Oliewenhuis Art Museum, Bloemfontein, Tshwane University of Technology, University of Stellenbosch, University of Pretoria and corporate collections such as the ABSA collection; RMB collection; Anglo Gold Foundation; Amsterdam Rotterdam Bank; Old Mutual head office, London, UK, Nando's UK, Telkom South Africa, SASOL, MTN, Gencor, South African Breweries, Kessel Feinstein, Saronsberg art collection, SATOUR head office in Pretoria and several other institutions, as well as in private collections in South Africa, the United Kingdom, France, the USA and Australia.
