Robert Griffiths Hodgins

London-born Robert Hodgins is a late bloomer. After immigrating to South Africa in the 1950s, a brief flurry of artistic activity was followed by a lengthy career as an art educator and occasional critic – notably, he took over Esme Berman’s role as critic at Newscheckmagazine.
