Guy du Toit
Guy du Toit was born in 1958 in South Africa, graduating with a BA in Fine Arts at the University of Pretoria in 1982. He has exhibited widely both at home and abroad including Bulgaria, China, Czech Republic, England, France, Germany, Ireland and the USA.
Guy has taught at various institutions in Gauteng, currently teaching sculpture part-time at the University of Pretoria.
He has a studio and foundry just outside Pretoria which he avails to other artists that would not normally have access to such facilities. Guy continually involves himself in community based projects and creative collaborations in an effort to demystify bronze casting and the art-making process.
His approach to art and life, the relationship between the body and material, art and craft, discourse and practise, the domestic and the professional, informs his work and his influence on some of those he has taught.
