Book Synopsis
William Kentridge, born in Johannesburg in 1955, is one of South Africa's most important contemporary artists. He works with and between the media of painting, writing, film, performance, and music, as well as with collaborative formats, to create an art that relates to politics, science, literature, and history, while leaving room for contradictions and uncertainty. Kentridge's work has been exhibited in museums, galleries, theaters and opera houses worldwide since the 1990s and is also owned by many major museums. He holds honorary doctorates from several universities, including Yale and the University of London. He has been awarded the Kyoto Prize (2010), the Princess of Asturias Prize (2017) and the Praemium Imperiale (2019), among others. Steidl has published Domestic Scenes (2022), Prints and Posters, Catalogue Raisonné Vol. 1 (2022) and Carlton Centre Games Acarde (2025).
