Description
The exhibition is a general review of the work of Willliam Kentridge (b. Johannesburg, 1955) since the end of the 1980s until now. It highlights the way in which it the various media and disciplines in his work are informed and polluted, an artistic process marked by a continuous fluidity, founded in transformation and movement. Best known for his animated films based on the charcoal drawings, Kentridge also the author of engravings, book illustrations, collages, sculptures, and works within the performing arts. Conceived in close collaboration with the artist and designed especially for this venue, the exhibition "William Kentridge: Fortune" emphasizes the unique artistic process of the artist, as well as the interrelation of media that he uses. The exhibition comprises a selection of works with a total of about 284 works - including 38 drawings, 27 movies, 184 engravings and 35 sculptures created between 1989 and 2014.
