Artist Keith Joubert (1948-2013) -Keith Joubert’s Africa is a journey into the heart and soul of the continent. He has spent a lifetime following his own heart to the remote corners of this land – examining its wealth of biodiversity and culture on a quest to understand its joys and anguish. He particularly favours the point of conflict where species and ideologies collide. Images combine in riotous colour on large canvasses that seek to unravel the mysteries at the essence of survival for us all. Born in South Africa in 1948, he studied art at the Johannesburg School of Art then worked as a book illustrator and sign writer, before he began to paint full time whilst living in remote bush camps in Africa. Currently based in the Selati Game Reserve in Limpopo Province, South Africa – his studio is an open thatched construction overlooking a waterhole. He travels regularly to Botswana, Mozambique, and the great game areas of East Africa. Joubert works in oil, watercolours, mixed media and occasionally bronze sculptures. His work is shown internationally in Johannesburg, Paris, London, and Reno, USA.
