The work of B. Ngobeni (b. 1985, South Africa) is inspired by surrealism, rebellious Dadaism, neo-expressionism, and minimalism. The artist critiques the political regime, hypocritical principles of democracy, social inequality, and abuse of power, which he has personally encountered many times. Since 2007, the artist has participated in exhibitions in Africa, the USA, and the United Kingdom. Recognition came in 2012 when he joined the MOMO Gallery in Johannesburg. In 2019, he participated in the Venice Biennale. Recently, he has been focusing on exploring different creative media and mentoring young artists. In 2017, the B. Ngobeni Art Award was established.
