In the first of William Kentridge’s six Norton lectures delivered at Harvard University earlier this year, the acclaimed artist reportedly emphasised that artistic experience is richer when it is suggestive rather than dictatorial and when the image and the word are readily “awaiting deformation”. This insistence on reconfiguration, reworking and reinterpretation infuses his latest exhibition titled No, It Is. It brings together recent flipbook films, silkscreened one-liners, enigmatic drawings and kinetic sculptures.
Venue:
Goodman Gallery Cape, 176 Sir Lowry Road, Woodstock.

For gallery hoppers – you might want to look in at David Krut Fine Art at Montebello Design Centre. Their end of year exhibition, “DKW 2012 Review”, includes several works by William Kentridge as well as a selection of works on paper by leading South African artists.
