Stanley Pinker

Stanley Pinker (1924 – 16 June 2012) was a South African painter and printmaker. Quotes “My aim is to communicate with everybody, not selectively. I feel that art, literature, music, and painting provide spiritual support. They should move the spirit and make us aware, and in that way I intend my paintings to make statements… I believe that art is one of the major optimisms, it is a life-support system, an affirmation of life.” https://grahamsgallery.co.za/stanley-faraday-pinker/?utm “In the dark days of our country, there were times when one had to live with the ‘reality’ of what one read in newspapers and saw on television screens, but when I went into my studio I did not want to paint those things. https://iol.co.za/capetimes/news/2012-06-27-pinker-touched-more-than-paint-brush/?utm External link Category:1924 births Category:2012 deaths Category: Artists from South Africa Category: Painters
