William Kentridge | Milestones Collection

William Kentridge is a singular force in contemporary art - an artist whose restless imagination bridges drawing, cinema, sculpture, opera, and theater. His remarkable career takes center stage in this richly illustrated and deeply considered volume tracing the ideas and influences that shape his expansive practice. With an essay by longtime friend Stephen Clingman and a conversation with novelist Julian Barnes, this book offers rare insight into the mind of an artist who makes history flicker, fracture, and come alive. Specially created for the Milestones series, two Tree of Life pieces trace the artist’s inspirations - from Goya to Mayakovsky, Shostakovich to the present day. The volume is not a retrospective; it is an invitation to follow the restless journey of creation itself.
