William Kentridge's art brings together drawing, film animation, sculpture and performance. He also applies his astonishing draftsmanship to the techniques of printmaking, including etching, screenprinting, lithography and linoleum cut. In fact printmaking has always been essential to his work, from his earliest forays into artmaking in the 1970s to his recent operas. "Printmaking has been not just an edge to or a side journey from the work that I've been making over the last 30 years or so," the artist has said, "but is very much a key to it." Kentridge's love of the printed image extends to books, and he often draws and prints on unbound pages from encyclopedias, ledgers and the like. In Trace, both a catalogue of prints from the Museum's collection and an artist's book, Kentridge uses translucent pages interspersed throughout the book to respond to his prints reproduced beneath them, in a dialogue between past and present. The book also includes a lecture by Kentridge on printmaking, illuminating its relevance to his broader practice.

Trace, Track, Tract

By Jen Butler on August 29, 2012

Format: Hardcover Verified Purchase

Trace by William Kentridge is a wonderful dialogue of inserted tracing paper drawings by the artist into a catalogue of his own work. A continuing comment, review of his own making and contribution. It contains all of the wit, vitality and obsession found in his work and places it into a book format.
Excellent and it has been broadcast widely
