The South African artist William Kentridge Hon RA was born in
Johannesburg in 1955 and lives and works there to this day. He is
internationally renowned for the expressionism of his work in
numerous media, among them charcoal, printmaking, sculpture and
film, as well as his acclaimed theatrical and operatic productions.
As elusive as it is allusive, Kentridge's art is shaped by
apartheid and grounded in the politics of the post-apartheid era,
and in science, literature and history, while always maintaining
space for contradiction and uncertainty. In a brilliant exposition
of Kentridge's output, Stephen Clingman, Distinguished Professor of
English at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, undertakes a
series of enquiries, of walks around the artist and his practice,
through the various layers and linkages, crossings and connections
of his art. As he proceeds, he considers Kentridge's themes,
explores them and proceeds by association to others. Along the way,
overlaps, thought-collages, allusions and assemblages come together
to create a connective, dimensional way of thinking inspired by
Kentridge's own habits of creation.
