威廉·肯特里奇（1955年生于约翰内斯堡）是当今世界最具魅力的当代艺术家之一，他以探索人性的本质而闻名，作品涵盖历史与日常主题。本书邀请读者“聆听回响”，感受肯特里奇跨学科实践的共鸣。本书收录了他四十余年的作品，从早期的版画和素描（这些作品奠定了他动画电影系列《投影绘画》的基础）到近期直面种族隔离、殖民主义、社会动荡和集体记忆的装置作品。诸如全景影像装置《更甜蜜地跳舞》和木刻系列《胜利与哀歌》等重要作品，都以游行为主题，有力地隐喻了变革。本书还介绍了“不太好的想法中心”（The Centre for the Less Good Idea），这是一个位于约翰内斯堡的表演孵化空间，由肯特里奇和布朗温·莱斯共同创立，其创作灵感源于肯特里奇实验性和开放式的创作方式。本书收录了肯特里奇近期创作的作品，例如三屏影像装置《再渡一片海》（To Cross One More Sea）以及“纸上游行”（Paper Procession）系列的新雕塑，展现了她创作实践的广度和深度——既批判又诗意，既充满个人色彩，又始终秉持着深刻的合作精神。

William Kentridge (b. Johannesburg, 1955) is one of the world’s most engaging contemporary artists, renowned for exploring the essence of humanity through both historical and everyday themes. This book invites readers to “listen to the echo”-to engage with the resonance of Kentridge’s multidisciplinary practice. Spanning more than four decades, it presents works ranging from his early printmaking and drawings, which laid the foundation for his animated film series “Drawings for Projection,” to recent installations confronting apartheid, colonialism, social upheaval, and collective memory.Major works such as the panoramic video installation More Sweetly Play the Dance and the woodcut series “Triumphs and Laments” use the motif of the procession as a powerful metaphor for change. The book also features The Centre for the Less Good Idea, a Johannesburg-based performance incubation space co-founded by Kentridge and Bronwyn Lace, which takes its impulse from Kentridge’s experimental and open-ended approach to making. With recent works like the three-channel film installation To Cross One More Sea and new sculptures from the series “Paper Procession,” this volume captures the breadth and depth of Kentridge’s practice-at once critical, poetic, personal, and always profoundly collaborative.
