William Kentridge: On Time

William Kentridge: On Time

William Kentridge is one of the most compelling artists of our time. His distinctive practice, a hybrid of drawing, animation, film, print-making, sculpture, set design, performance and sound has captivated audiences in museums, opera houses, biennales and festivals across the world. Kentridge’s art is an astounding inquiry into humanity and universal and primordial issues in the modern age. His artistic impact has been recognised with numerous awards from France, Japan, USA, Austria and Germany.
This is a unique opportunity to hear the artist discuss his inspirations, collaborations and the refinement of his intricate and influential art, on the occasion of the Australian premiere of his remarkable work The Refusal of Time.
