Artist
Painting
South African artist William Kentridge is as versatile as he is experimental, producing prints, drawings, performances and animated films. His work presents a fusion of personal biography with international history, focusing largely on apartheid, the years leading up to its development, and the time since its dissolution. He is best known for his animated films, which use his drawings in an innovative manner, through multiple layers, reuses, erasures and doubles. An autobiographical character occupies many of his works, through which Kentridge explores identity in the face of colonialism and political strife, using a satirical yet serious lens.
