| Summary | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
Over the last ten years or so, Bitterkomix has been (as one critic remarks) "consistently challenging and outrageous, undeniably brilliant, and impossible to ignore". Internationally, the Bitterkomix duo of Anton Kannemeyer and Conrad Botes stand at the forefront of the new international expressionist comix movement. Locally, they have raised a storm of controversy through their assault on the Afrikaner cultural mainstream, which they have developed into a broader critique of South African society. Conrad Botes (Konradski), studied graphic design and illustration at the University of Stellenbosch. Here he met Anton Kannemeyer (Joe Dog), and together they founded the magazine Bitterkomix in 1992. Conrad Botes and Anton Kannemeyer continue to publish their work in Bitterkomix, and regularly exhibit in South Africa and Europe.
The Big Bag Bittercomix was launched at the Michael Stevenson Gallery in October, click here to visit the website. |
