About Artist:
The quiet near unassuming outward manner of South African artist Laurens Barnard belies an active creative life that has of late come full circle.
Born in 1957, Laurens Barnard has been aware of his artistic vocation since boyhood. At the Pretoria based Hendrik Verwoerd High School, his art teacher Mr Potgieter gave the initial impetus by awarding him 100% for a project in exchange for acquiring the self same work. This early accomplishment sparked off Barnard's frenetic career as local visual arts practitioner.
Shortly after matriculating, Barnard enrolled as a fine arts student at the Pretoria Technikon. During this period, the lure of the cinematic industry caused him to change midstream followed by a number of prolific years in film production. His personal highlights dating back to this sojourn through the milieu of cinema, is his former function as film-editor of the 1982 TV series entitled "Ko?perasie Stories" under the direction of Koos Roets. Working closely with his mentor Jans Rautenbach for four years and including, Shoprite adverts (interactively) promoted by characters in the current popular Afrikaans TV soapie - 7de Laan. In total Barnard was involved in eight hundred film productions spanning a fecund twenty five years in the industry. As Line Producer for Studio 38 Munich - The Series "Joost und Jambo" was a international success.
