William Kentridge: See for Yourself
-
The Warehouse Art Museum invites you to experience the unique studio practice of internationally acclaimed South African artist William Kentridge. Featuring prints, drawings, films, and sculpture in a variety of media from throughout the artist’s career, the exhibition focuses on how meaning is constructed through processes of making and interactive looking. A window into how Kentridge sees and thinks, this exhibition explores the limits and possibilities of art as a means of making sense of the world. Be prepared for challenging experiences and ideas. Viewer discretion is advised.
