William Kentridge
South African, b. 1955

Working across drawing, film, painting, printmaking, and other media, William Kentridge articulates the concerns of post-apartheid South Africa with unparalleled nuance and lyricism. He’s best known for an inventive process in which he draws and erases with charcoal, recording his expressionistic, monochromatic compositions at each stage. He then displays a video projection of the looped images alongside their highly worked and reworked source drawings. Altogether, they tell alternately quiet, brutal, and deeply personal stories that reveal Kentridge’s ambivalence about his native country. Born in Johannesburg, where he now lives and works, Kentridge has enjoyed solo shows at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Tate Modern, Kunstmuseum Basel, and Museo Reina Sofía, among other prestigious institutions. He has exhibited at the Venice Biennale and Documenta on numerous occasions.
