Description
Screening & Discussion: Six Films by William Kentridge
The Kreeger Museum
Kentridge has worked notably in film, theater, painting and drawing, with most of his subjects and imagery flowing easily between media. Join Curator Eric Denker and collector Daniel Levinas as they lead a discussion of Kentridge's film and printwork following the screening of six short movies featuring protagonist Soho Eckstein. Films to be screened: 1. Johannesburg 2nd Greatest City After Paris 2. Mine 3. Monument 4. Sobriety Obesity and Growing Old 5. Felix in Exile 6. History of the Main Complaint
*The Kreeger set to display 40 to 50 works of two of the world's most significant printmakers. One of them, William Kentridge, was born in South Africa to an affluent anti-apartheid family, studied politics and African studies, and later took art classes and drama workshops at the Johannesburg Art Foundation. His poignant works are often expressions of a brutalized society left in the wake of an oppressive political regime. They will be on display alongside the work of another renowned printmaker - Oleg Kudryashov.
