The works of South African artist William Kentridge are being shown until November 13th at the Marian Goodman Gallery, 79 rue du Temple in Paris. A native of Johannesburg, Kentridge worked as a theatre director and a cartoonist before devoting his time to drawing and painting and is now known as an artist much in demand notably in such events as the International Fairs of Kassel or Venice.
Many of his themes have been focussing on Apartheid and the South African bourgeois society and the artist has been mixing in his works all sorts of characters, rich, poor, ugly or strange people.
