William Kentridge is an artist of global stature,

0:00:120:00:15

whose work is shown in museums and opera houses around the world.

0:00:150:00:19

He was born in South Africa

0:00:210:00:23

shortly after the imposition of apartheid and his career has

0:00:230:00:27

coincided with the most turbulent period in his country's history.

0:00:270:00:31

In 1989, William made the first in a series of hand-drawn,

0:00:340:00:39

animated films that he calls Drawings For Projection.

0:00:390:00:43

Johannesburg, The 2nd Greatest City After Paris is the first film,

0:00:450:00:49

and when it was made in 1989,

0:00:490:00:52

there was no understanding at all that it would become part of

0:00:520:00:56

a series that would be going on for 26 years - and ongoing.

0:00:560:01:01

The title came from this absurd dream phrase.

0:01:030:01:06

At that stage, I was keeping a dream diary and I woke up with

0:01:060:01:09

an image of a group photograph and the caption said,

0:01:090:01:13

"Soho Eckstein" - don't know where the name came from - "with 120 artists and photographers

0:01:130:01:19

"who spent eight hours recording Johannesburg,

0:01:190:01:22

"the second greatest city after Paris."
