Anton Kannemeyer
° 1967
Lives in Cape Town (South Africa), born in Cape Town (South Africa).
Cartoonist, publisher and lecturer Anton Kannemeyer has repeatedly confronted issues of racism and exploitation. Originally dealing with the history of his home country of South Africa, his bitingly funny and bold cartoons have come to centre on the legacy of colonialism and present-day relations between Africa and the West.
