THE LIFE AND TIMES OF A SOUTH AFRICAN SCULPTOR
Anton Smit is a widely revered South African sculptor, born in Boksburg, South Africa (August 1954). Completely self-taught, he entered his first sculpting competition at the age of sixteen, and won the first prize. He received an honourable mention in 1988 at the SA Association of Arts’ New Signatures Competition exhibition and proceeded to coin the first prize in the same competition in 1979. Following successful exhibitions in Nelspruit, White River, Cape Town and Pretoria, Smit turned to sculpting full-time to fulfill the demand for his work by galleries and private collectors alike.
