Pieter Swanepoel did his undergraduate (Fine Arts) studies at the University of Pretoria and later completed a Masters in visual arts with the University of South Africa. He has been an active participant in various art fields, including literature, drama, art criticism and the fine arts. Over the past two decades he has taught in a number of visual arts fields, including drawing, graphic design, art history and fine arts. More recent research interests include: masculinity in popular culture (Tarzan), common interests among theoreticians and artists (the re-turn to art practice), politics of the artworld (reading about the making of art about what gets written about making art). Pieter Swanepoel is currently a lecturer in the Department of Fine Arts at the University of Pretoria.
