William Kentridge is an artist of global stature, | 0:00:12 | 0:00:15 | |
whose work is shown in museums and opera houses around the world. | 0:00:15 | 0:00:19 | |
He was born in South Africa | 0:00:21 | 0:00:23 | |
shortly after the imposition of apartheid and his career has | 0:00:23 | 0:00:27 | |
coincided with the most turbulent period in his country's history. | 0:00:27 | 0:00:31 | |
In 1989, William made the first in a series of hand-drawn, | 0:00:34 | 0:00:39 | |
animated films that he calls Drawings For Projection. | 0:00:39 | 0:00:43 | |
Johannesburg, The 2nd Greatest City After Paris is the first film, | 0:00:45 | 0:00:49 | |
and when it was made in 1989, | 0:00:49 | 0:00:52 | |
there was no understanding at all that it would become part of | 0:00:52 | 0:00:56 | |
a series that would be going on for 26 years - and ongoing. | 0:00:56 | 0:01:01 | |
The title came from this absurd dream phrase. | 0:01:03 | 0:01:06 | |
At that stage, I was keeping a dream diary and I woke up with | 0:01:06 | 0:01:09 | |
an image of a group photograph and the caption said, | 0:01:09 | 0:01:13 | |
"Soho Eckstein" - don't know where the name came from - "with 120 artists and photographers | 0:01:13 | 0:01:19 | |
"who spent eight hours recording Johannesburg, | 0:01:19 | 0:01:22 | |
"the second greatest city after Paris." | 0:01:22 | 0:01:26 | |
