About the Artist
Rolf Weijburg was born in Eindhoven, the Netherlands, in 1952. Originally studying social geography and cartography at the University of Utrecht, he switched to the Academy of Fine Arts in the same town and concentrated on printmaking and the graphic arts. He has followed the tradition of many Dutch artists since the 17th century who traveled abroad, usually to the southern regions of Europe. After extensive travels through Southern and Eastern Europe, Rolf Weijburg’s etchings took a turn to Africa following a year’s voyage through the Middle-East and East and Central Africa, in 1979. Many more travels through and around the African continent have followed, providing him with an endless flow of inspiration.
