The continuing success and critical acclaim generated
by Hennie Niemann Jnr's annual online auctions have
reinforced the artist's decision to sell his new paintings
by auction. He has produced 20 oil paintings during the
past 12 months, and art lovers will once again have the
opportunity to acquire these works through the fair and
practical auction process.
Hennie is very aware of the high expectations of his
supporters, and is continuously developing and refining his
technique and stylistic approach in order to produce artworks
of the highest quality. The paintings on offer include examples
of Hennie's longstanding fascination with the human form,
as well as his prowess in constructing his typically colourful
and well balanced interior and still life compositions. The artist
always enjoys introducing new subject matter to his oeuvre,
and once again there are a number of these bold, somewhat
experimental works included. This varied selection of paintings
is testament to Hennie's exceptional talent, as well as his
ability to capture and communicate the essence of what
fascinates him.

Hennie Niemann Jnr
1972 Born in Bloemfontein to Magriet and Hennie Niemann.
1980 - 89 Moved to Vermont where he was introduced to art at a very early age. Under the tuition of his artist father, Hennie Niemann Snr., and Gregoire Boonzaier, he began sketching in bistre.
1990 After matriculating from Hermanus High School, Hennie's military service afforded him a year in the Kruger National Park. It was there, surrounded by the bushveld, that his love of nature and wildlife was nurtured.
1991 - 92 Drawing on this new found source of inspiration, Hennie returned to Vermont and started his artistic career. His bistre sketches and expressionistic oils reflected his intense affinity with the interactions of the wild.
1993 His first exhibition of drawings was a sell-out.
1994 - 96 Met Angela Key who shared his passion for painting and wildlife. Together they set up a permanent studio in Vermont from where they made frequent safaris and visited many game parks and nature reserves throughout Southern Africa, resulting in a highly successful exhibition of their works at the Onrus Galerie in September 1996.
1997 Exhibition with Angela Key at The Cherie de Villiers Fine Art Gallery, Rosebank, Johannesburg. Donated a painting to a WWF auction for the protection of endagered species.
1998 Exhibition at Onrus Galerie at the Marine, Hermanus.
2000 ‘Triptych’ Exhibition with Angela Key and Wehrner Lemmer at Johans Borman Fine Art Gallery, Cape Town.
2002 Traveled to Mozambique, Malawi and Zambia to collect reference material for paintings. Invited to show at the ‘Exhibition of Contemporary South African Art’ in Chelsea, London, where his paintings sold out.
2002 - 05 Participated in group exhibitions at Stellenbosch Art Gallery and Art and Wine gallery, Clarens.
2006 First solo exhibition of oil paintings at Johans Borman Fine Art Gallery, Cape Town.
2008 Solo exhibition of oil paintings at Johans Borman Fine Art Gallery, Cape Town.
2010 Hennie Niemann Jnr Online Auction 2010 at Johans Borman Fine Art Gallery, Cape Town.
2011 Hennie Niemann Jnr Online Auction 2011 at Johans Borman Fine Art, Cape Town.
2012 Hennie Niemann Jnr Online Auction 2012 at Johans Borman Fine Art, Cape Town.
