LUAN NEL (Malta Bella)

Luan Nel is an insightful look into the work of artist Luan Nel. Known for his paintings of the natural world as well as his performance work as Donatella Visagie amongst others. The book broadly covers all three decades of this artists output. Nel subscribes to an art practice that consistently catches the audience unawares with its poetry as well as with an attention to detail and timing. It is no ordinary monograph with essays by leading art writers and interviews with artists and activists covering areas of identity, our South African context and the queer archive.
