Alexis Preller: Africa, the Sun and Shadows

Alexis Preller at Standard Bank Gallery

This retrospective exhibition curated by Karel Nel traces the prolific painting career of this South African Modernist.

Although Preller trained in England and France in the 1930's he was deeply inspired by Southern African cultures and considered his art "rooted in the African soil". This exhibition attempts to make clear the marriage of Preller's European influences and African sympathies.
