"Born and resident in Johannesburg, Kentridge produced work that engaged in the struggle against Apartheid. Today, his work continues to infuse political sensitivity into the making of his graphic representations and in his filmic and theatrical productions in a manner that discovers politics in the daily traumas and dramas of human experience." - University of Brighton Gallery website
I have been looking at some of his works and find them amzing and moving. The exhibition that was at the Brighton University Gallery "Fragile Identities", looks like it would of been something of an experience. I came across Kentridge in a magazine and started to look for more information on him. Apparently he produced a show at the Annandale Galleries, 'Telegrams from the nose, 2008' in July. I hate that I missed this or should I say that I didn't discover him earlier!!!
