William Kentridge is one of South Africa’s pre-eminent artists, perhaps best known for producing animated films based on charcoal drawings, in which South African social and politics are recurrent themes. Kentridge’s drawings remain the driving force behind his prolific collaborations in films, theatre and opera productions. In 2015, Kentridge directed a new production of Alban Berg’s Lulu, which debuted at the Metropolitan Opera, New York; it was subsequently taken to the English National Opera (ENO), London (2016–17). A major itinerant retrospective of his work titled William Kentridge: Five Themes continued until 2012 after an international tour that began at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art in 2009. More recently, William Kentridge: Thick Time – featuring six key works created between 2003 and 2016 – was exhibited at Whitechapel Gallery, London (2016–17), and continues its tour across Europe through 2018 (Denmark, Salzburg, and Manchester). Kentridge’s work was included in South Africa: the art of a nation at the British Museum, London (2016–17).
