He studied Political Science and African Studies at the University of Johannesburg, previous his practice of visual arts at the Johannesburg Art Foundation. During this period, he devoted himself to design and theater, and acted in various productions.

Over the course of his career, William Kentridge (Johannesburg, 1955) has created a body of work in which traditional media such as drawing, etching and stop motion animation become material with which to question the bases of visual representation in modernity, the relationship between image and narrative, and the nature of the cinematic. The exhibition William Kentridge: Fortune reconstructs and displays the different paths taken by the artist in the process of forming a singular visual grammar, in which the artist’s subjectivity is inextricable from the recent history of South Africa.
