[Untitled] / Kentridge, William ; Jarry A., 1999

 Item
Identifier: CC-39854-41819
Scope and Contents

The inner flap of the dust jacket reads, "William Kentridge's drawing-based works, encompassing animated films, theatre and opera productions, present a uniquely evocative, emblematic view of the state of South Africa today...from the Truth and Reconciliation Commission hearings to traces of apartheid's violence in the landscape around Johannesburg. Kentridge's animated films are patiently built up from series of single drawings, incorporating erasure as well as the addition of lines and forms; a week's drawing can give rise to just forty seconds of animation. Socio-political traumas such as apartheid are narrated through his haunting imagery." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
