Ben Martins Biography

Ben Martins is one of the most popular and richest Politician who was born on September 2, 1956 in Alexandria, Virginia, United States.

Martins was a member of the Black Consciousness Movement beginning in the 1970s. He was utilized for his artistic background after having studied at Bill Ainslie’s studio and at the Federated Union of Black Artists (FUBA) with the likes of Johnny Rieberio, Fikile Magadlela and Thamsanqa Mnyele. As a graphic artist, he produced protest T-shirts and made posters for the movement, later producing the famous poster distributed at Steve Biko’s funeral. In the late 1970s, he traveled to Botswana and Lesotho to meet with activists-in-exile such as Mnyele and Wally Serote and in 1979, became a member of the African National Congress (later joining Umkhonto we Sizwe, the armed branch of the ANC). He was made the chief coordinator of the visual art committee in South Africa for assisting artists to attend the Culture and Resistance Conference and Festival in Gaborone. From 1977 up to the time of his arrest he worked and ran art workshops while setting up one of the earliest silk screen and poster making collectives at the Old Mill building in Pietermaritzburg.

During the 1980s, he produced T-shirts and posters for the United Democratic Front, while also contributing poetry, essays, and graphics to Staffrider magazine, an important and explicitly non-racial literary production in the 70s and 80s written for the general public about daily life in South Africa.
