William Kentridge: Pain & Sympathy | Art21 "Exclusive"
Loading...
Uploaded by art21org on Apr 2, 2010
Episode #100: With his video "History of the Main Complaint" (1996) serving as a backdrop, William Kentridge discusses how artists draw upon tragedy as subject matter for their work and how drawing itself can be a compassionate act.
Having witnessed first-hand one of the twentieth centurys most contentious struggles—the dissolution of apartheid—William Kentridge brings the ambiguity and subtlety of personal experience to public subjects most often framed in narrowly defined terms. Using film, drawing, sculpture, animation, and performance, he transmutes sobering political events into powerful poetic allegories. Aware of myriad ways in which we construct the world by looking, Kentridge often uses optical illusions to extend his drawings-in-time into three dimensions.

Gerhard Richter at MARIAN GOODMAN GALLERY.wmvby jameskalm9,610 views
Motivating and supporting to artists trying to make challenging work. Quiets the fear of overstepping bounds by representing another's point of view, or a difficult point of view. The act of your gaze on the other can speak to your compassion rather than your judgement. Don't turn away, your witness is valuable.
