SIGNED! WILLIAM KENTRIDGE AND ROSALIND MORRIS "ACCOUNTS AND DRAWINGS FROM UNDERGROUND" 2015, FIRST EDITION, 196 PAGES, ILLUSTRATED, COMPLETE INTACT DUSTJACKET IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. SIGNED AND INSCRIBED BY WILLIAM KENTRIDGE.
Over the last twenty years, William Kentridge has built a worldwide reputation as a contemporary artist, best known for his series of ten animated films created from charcoal drawings. In Accounts and Drawings from Underground, Kentridge and Rosalind C. Morris bring us an unprecedented collaboration, where they have taken the pages of the 1906 Cash Book of the East Rand Proprietary Mines Corporation and transformed it into something wholly new. Kentridge contributes forty landscape drawings in response to the transient terrain mining created and as a visual epitaph to a history of disappearances. For her part, Morris plumbs the text of the cash book to generate a unique narrative account. Reading down and across the columns of the pages as though they were themselves shafts in the earth, she draws together the stories of migrant laborers and charts the flows of capital and desire, overwriting the text of the book to give us a palpable sense of the world that gold mining created.
William Kentridge is an artist best known for his animated films based on charcoal drawings. He also works in prints, books, collage, sculpture, and the performing arts. His work has been widely exhibited, including at the Museum of Modern Art, the Musée du Louvre, Whitechapel Gallery, the Reina Sofia museum, and the Kunstmuseum Basel.
Rosalind C. Morris is professor of anthropology at Columbia University. She is the author of Photographies East: The Camera and Its Histories in East and Southeast Asia, In the Place of Origins: Modernity and its Mediums in Northern Thailand, and New Worlds from Fragments: Film, Ethnography, and the Representation of Northwest Coast Cultures.
