Norman Clive Catherine
Curriculum Vitae

1993

About the Item

Norman Clive Catherine, born in September 1949 in East London, South Africa, is a renowned artist celebrated for his unique blend of dark humour and surrealism. He began his artistic journey at the East London Technical College Art School and held his first solo exhibition in Johannesburg in 1969. Catherine's work often features monstrous creatures that symbolize the psychological complexities of South African society, particularly during the Apartheid era. His experiences living in cities like Los Angeles and New York enriched his perspective on freedom and social issues, which he explores through various mediums, including painting, sculpture, and mixed media. Today, he resides at Hartbeespoort Dam, where he continues to create thought-provoking art that engages with both local and global audiences. ‘Curriculum Vitae’ was exhibited as part of 'Modern Masters V', the fifth iteration of EBONY/CURATED's annual exhibition, held in our Cape Town Gallery, focusing on modern artworks produced in Southern Africa prior to 2000. This broad selection highlights fourteen very familiar and lesser-known artists who worked in a variety of mediums, differing influences, and distinct visual languages.
