Kentridge’s Subtext

Leonida Kovač

Sažetak

This article analyzes several multimedia installations by the contemporary South African artist William Kentridge, understanding his artistic procedure as a deconstruction and refiguration of the cultural artefact, or a resemantization of cultural history. The author considers the modalities of Kentridge’s performative critical reading of the European Enlightenment, which is contextualized in his art with regard to the capitalistic colonial and genocide policies practiced on the African continent.
