William Kentridge & Neo Muyanga : Second-Hand Reading, 2013

Beschrijving

Tent. William Kentridge : Thick Time, Londen, Whitechapel Gallery, 21-09-2016, 15-01-2017. - Soundtrack bij het flipbook dat de Zuid-Afrikaanse kunstenaar vervaardigde van een Engels woordenboek. - Second-Hand Reading is composed of hundreds of drawings superimposed on pages from the Shorter Oxford English Dictionary and other lexicons and encyclopedias. Like figures on a stage, drawings of the artist, scenes from nature, geometric shapes and phrases dance to music by Neo Muyanga across a backdrop of definitions and classifications. These rational sequences of words are counterpoised with the intuitive and the imaginary.
