<strong>KEVIN</strong> <strong>ATKINSON</strong> 1939-2007<br />

A brief biography<br />

Kevin Atkinson was one of the most energetic and ambitious of the younger generation of<br />

South African artists who emerged in the early 1960s. Born in Cape Town in 1939,Atkinson’s entire career,<br />

apart from short sojourns abroad, was based in Cape Town.<br />

Atkinson studied at the Michaelis School of Fine Art at the University of Cape Town, graduating with a BA<br />

Fine Art, in 1963. Returning as a lecturer from 1972 to 1997, Atkinson became synonymous with a spirit of<br />

adventurous experiment, influencing generations of students.<br />

In his own work he pursued an artistic re-engagement with the mystical and the symbolic. In 1978, he<br />

obtained his MA Fine Art degree (cum laude) from the University of Cape Town<br />

Just prior to his death in 2007 Atkinson established a Trust with the goal of preserving his underground<br />

studio, as a site of artistic debate and a place to make his work and that of his late wife Patricia Pierce-<br />

Atkinson (1942-1993), accessible to students, curators and a wider public.
