Visual Musing: Prints by William Kentridge

Saint Louis Art Museum / February 25 - June 19, 2011 / St. Louis, Missouri

www.slam.org

This exhibition of 44 works brings together two recent series of prints by Kentridge, Thinking Aloud (2004) and Nose (2007–2009). Both bodies of work blend his own visual iconography with that of stories from literature and theater. Composed of his expressive and richly layered marks, the prints demonstrate his mastery of intaglio processes. Kentridge's works reveal a lively sense of improvisation and the unexpected unfolding of metaphorical associations. Hours: Tuesday-Sunday, 10:00 am to 5:00 pm; Friday, 10:00 am to 9:00 pm; closed Monday
