There are lots of things worth noting in the William Kentridge exhibition: Five Themes. For now, I will simply note the superb blending of mechanical actors with hand-drawn animation in ‘Black Box’ (pictured above, not playing). The piece also incorporated found video footage of a rhinoceros “hunt”—the rhinoceros being a prominent figure throughout the piece, and much of Kentridge’s other work.
You can find out more at the Exhibition Website. The show runs until May 31, 2009.
I saw the Kentridge exhibition at MoMA, New York — it was great!
