Nako Paulus Sekete, known as Paul Sekete, was a self-trained artist born in Ficksburg, Orange Free State, South Africa. He worked as a miner before joining the Katlehong Art Centre, where he explored various media including oil and acrylic painting, linocut, woodcut, clay, and wood sculpture. Sekete's unique style involved elongation, distortion, and disproportionate scale in depicting the human form. He also had a small number of sculptures cast in bronze at Guy du Toit’s studio in Pretoria. Sekete's first solo exhibition of terracotta and bronze sculptures took place at Gallery 21 in Johannesburg in 1990. He exhibited regularly in South Africa, Namibia, and the United States of America between 1990 and 2009.Information provided by the user....
