Synopsis
Internationally renowned South African artist William Kentridge creates animated movies from “drawings for projection,” charcoal renderings he alters during filming. Paralleling the political upheaval in his homeland, his works reflect the tenuous nature of memory, both personal and historical.
Published to accompany Kentridge’s first retrospective exhibition in the United States and South Africa, this fascinating book offers in-depth coverage of the artist’s animated films, drawings, and theater productions. Kentridge has also created 16 new, previously unpublished “artist’s pages” for the book.
A wealth of colorplates, essays, and an interview exploring various facets of Kentridge’s creative process, and a chronology outlining both his and his country’s milestones make this book the most comprehensive examination of Kentridge’s work to date.

From the Publisher
Examining the black and white animated films of William Kentridge, this volume discusses the political and philosophical dimensions of drawing, a term the artist applies equally to his works on paper, film and theatre productions. It surveys Kentridge's work within a broad historical and geographic context of politicised art practices while analyzing the formal innovations of his animation techniques.
