Weighing---And Wanting

William Kentridge: Weighing... and Wantingfocuses on the the artist's 1998 film of the same name, and the drawings he used to make the film. Weighing... and Wantingis one of Kentridge's most personal films, and its poignancy is expressed through the intimacy of the large-scale color reproductions of the charcoal drawings. Over 80 film stills are reproduced in the catalogue, enabling the reader to follow the film sequence. An insightful essay on the drawings and film, and biographic information about William Kentridge completes the catalogue.Ollman, Leah is the author of 'Weighing---And Wanting', published 2001 under ISBN 9780934418584 and ISBN 0934418586.
