William Kentridge
1955 Born in Johannesburg (ZA) ♂ William Kentridge graduated in 1976 from the University of the Witwatersrand with majors in Politics and African Studies. From 1976 to 1978 he was a student at the Johannesburg Art Foundation, where he taught etching for two years thereafter. William Kentridge has gained international recognition for his distinctive animated short films, and for the charcoal drawings he makes in producing them. But Kentridge has worked in theatre for many years, initially as a designer and actor, and more recently as a director. Since 1992 his theatre involvement has been in collaboration with Handspring Puppet Company - creating multi-media pieces using puppets, live actors and animation. Whilst he has throughout his career moved between film, drawing and theatre, his primary activity remains drawing - and he sometimes conceives his theatre and film work as an expanded form of drawing. 2006 Tide Table - Indicatore delle maree Accademia Carrara, Bergamo Selections from the LeRoy Neiman Center for Print Studies - Columbia University Marianne Boesky Gallery, New York, NY 2005 William Kentridge - 7 Fragments for Georges Melies MOCA THE GEFFEN CONTEMPORARY, Los Angeles, CA William Kentridge Miami Art Central, Miami, FL William Kentridge - Auftragsarbeit für das Deutsche Guggenheim Deutsche Guggenheim, Berlin Guardami - Percezione del Video Palazzo delle Papesse - Centro Arte Contemporanea, Siena William Kentridge - Journey to the Moon / Seven Fragmnets for Georges Méličs / D Museu do Chiado - Museu Nacional de Arte Contemporânea, Lisbon EindhovenIstanbul Van Abbemuseum, Eindhoven Rückkehr ins All Hamburger Kunsthalle, Hamburg William Kentridge - Automatic Writing The RISD Museum, Providence, RI 51st International Exhibition: Always a Little Further La Biennale di Venezia, Venice Identitá & Nomadismo Palazzo delle Papesse - Centro Arte Contemporanea, Siena Daumenkino Kunsthalle Düsseldorf, Duesseldorf William Kentridge Chelouche Gallery of Contemporary Art, Tel-Aviv Fünfundzwanzig Jahre Sammlung Deutsche Bank Deutsche Guggenheim, Berlin Questions de temps et d’espace Musée dart contemporain de Montréal, Montreal, Quebec RE-ACT Nikolaj, Copenhagen Contemporary Art Center, Copenhagen Faces in the Crowd - Picturing Modern Life from Manet to Today MUSEO D`ARTE CONTEMPORANEA CASTELLO DI RIVOLI, Turin The World is a Stage: Stories Behind Pictures Mori Art Museum, Tokyo William Kentridge Städelsches Kunstinstitut und Städtische Galerie, Frankfurt/Main William Kentridge Musée dart contemporain de Montréal, Montreal, Quebec 2004 White: Whiteness and Race in Contemporary Art International Center of Photography, New York, NY William Kentridge The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, NY Point of View - An Anthology of the Moving Image UCLA Hammer Museum, Los Angeles, CA In Exile.
