Anton obtained a BA Fine Arts degree in 1990 and a MA Fine Arts in 1995, both from the University of Pretoria. He has exhibited locally and abroad since 1992.
He works in a variety of media, although most consistently in paint and installations. Both are connected by an incisive conceptualism and interest in twentieth century South African history. Anton recently started to depart from figuration on a parallel track to his figurative painting. These process-oriented works are both aligned with, and branch out from his paintings from the early 1990s.
