==Biography==
Kingelez was born as Jean Baptiste in 1948 in Kimbembele-Ihunga in what was then the Belgian Congo. After graduating from secondary school he moved to Kinshasa in 1970. Until 1977 he studied part-time and supported himself by teaching at a school and by working as a restorer of tribal masks at the National Museum in Kinshasa. At the same time he began to create some of his first art works. Since 1985 he has dedicated himself entirely to his art.
In 1989 he was invited to Paris to present his art in the exhibition ''Les Magiciens de la Terre'' by André Magnin, curator of The Contemporary African Art Collection (CAAC) of Jean Pigozzi. Since then his work has been featured in numerous exhibitions and has been included in the collection of Jean Pigozzi among other private collectors including Agnes B and the Museum of Séte (France). Today Kingelez lives in Kinshasa with his two wives and children.〔
