In this week's episode of Platemark (s3e38), host Ann Shafer talks with Jillian Ross, collaborative master printer and publisher with an eponymous imprint, Jillian Ross Print, in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada.   Ross returned to her native Saskatoon after many years in Johannesburg, South Africa, where she was the master printer at the David Krut Workshop (DKW) from 2003 to 2020.  There, she worked with over 100 South African and international artists, most notably William Kentridge. Ross and partner Brendan Copestake founded Jillian Ross Print in 2021 in Saskatoon, where they continue working on collaborative projects in South Africa as well as developing new relationships abroad.   Ross has collaborated with William Kentridge since 2006 on major, complicated, and multi-part print projects, including the Triumphs and Laments Woodcuts (2016–21), The Universal Archive (2011–15), The Noses (2006–10) at DKW, and the recently released Studio Life Gravures (2020–22) from Jillian Ross Print (co-published with DKW). Her collaboration with Kentridge continues.   Other recent projects include a partnerships with Latitudes Online, South African artists Cinthia Sifa Mulanga and Puleng Mongale, and the technical team at The University of Alberta in Canada. Ross recently realized an exhibition, William Kentridge: The Colander, at Griffin Art Projects in Vancouver, BC, with curator Lisa Baldissera, the Kentridge Studio, and David Krut Projects in Johannesburg.   Throughout her work, particularly in the publicly accessible open-studio format of DKW at Arts on Main in Johannesburg, Ross has promoted and enhanced artist, collector, and public knowledge of printmaking through mentorship, educational workshops, and knowledge sharing.   Episode image: Lucy MacGarry   USEFUL LINKS https://www.jillianrossprint.com https://www.instagram.com/jillianrossprint_/ https://www.facebook.com/jillian.ross.520 https://www.linkedin.com/in/jillianrossprint https://www.griffinartprojects.ca/exhibitions/william-kentridge-the-colander https://latitudes.online/artworks.html https://latitudesartfair.com/about-the-event/ https://remaimodern.org/about/remai-modern-museum/   Jillian Ross working on William Kentridge's photogravure plates at the University of Alberta, Edmonton.

What happens when a biology teacher transforms into an NFL official? On today's episode, we're joined by none other than Craig Wrolstad, who has been making significant calls in the NFL since 2003.   Craig was my biology teacher way back in 1992 and our paths woudl later cross during my days playing quarterback at Central Washington University.  You will find the story funny....so listen for it!Venturing back in time, we explore Craig's formative years in Renton, the impact of his encouraging parents, and his passion for sports. We discuss how his father's job at Continental Airlines sparked his love for travel. The conversation takes an inspiring turn as we chart Craig's transition from teaching to officiating in the NFL. He also shares his teaching experiences, illuminating the drastic changes in education, particularly in science and technology.  Craig will tell a story about Brett Favre, along with his journey from the Pac-12 that led him eventually to the NFL.At the end of our conversation, we delve into Craig's advice for dads, the need for positivity and mentoring, and the power of instilling self-belief in kids.  We also highlight a pressing issue - the need for officials in youth sports. Craig lends his insight into how belief shapes our lives and perspectives.   The wise Bruce Brown also is highlighted in this episode, given the impact that he had on Craig and me.This episode is a must-listen for dads, sports enthusiasts, and anyone seeking an inspiring life story.Lattitude Sitka Our sea adventures cover fishing, wildlife tours, beach excursions, scuba diving, snorkeling, paddleDisclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

L'obiettivo di lungo termine era quello di preparare la strada per la crescita di una Scuola d'Arte Sudafricana, incentivando gli artisti locali, per una crescita culturale di tutta la popolazione.Next Exhibitionin collaborazione conVidi srlOno ArtSimona Bartolena, storica dell'arte contemporanea, è presidente dell'Associazione Heart – pulsazioni culturali.

Based in Johannesburg, South Africa, internationally acclaimed artist William Kentridge engages with politics and memory through a variety of forms – from charcoal drawings, animation and sculptures, to immersive videos, theatre and opera. His 2022 exhibition at London's Royal Academy was hailed as "enthralling," an "operatic epic," while Kentridge's current retrospective at L.A.'s Broad Museum has been called "extraordinary." He spoke to Eleanor Wachtel about his work and career, as well as his recent "lockdown" project, a series of films about Kentridge's life in the studio, called "Self-Portrait as a Coffee Pot," which had its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival last fall.

World-renowned South African artist William Kentridge discusses the process of making the 2019 chamber opera Waiting for the Sibyl. He also touches on why artists should stay open to new ideas, the complex relationship between humans and algorithms — "one has to make space for that which does not compute," he says — and the "unavoidable optimism" in the activity of making.During the 2022-23 academic year, Cal Performances, the Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive (BAMPFA) and the Townsend Center for the Humanities at UC Berkeley are participating in a campuswide residency with Kentridge.Cal Performances will present the U.S. premiere of SIBYL on March 17-19.

In his works, unlike in traditional animation that employs multiple drawings to denote change and movement, Kentridge erases and alters a single, stable drawing while recording the changes with stop-motion camera work. He modifies the drawing slightly, goes to the camera, and begins what he calls “the rather dumb physical activity of stalking the drawing, or walking backwards and forwards between the camera and drawing; raising, shifting, adapting the image.” The result is a hybrid of drawing and film that has been highly praised for both its innovative manipulation of media and its ability to look at troubling social issues in a way that is neither sentimental nor aggrandized.   South Africa, where Kentridge was born and continues to work, is the focal point of his studio practice. Kentridge addresses apartheid and other social wounds without tackling the issues head-on, making them susceptible either to redemption that comes too easily or to a rendering of their history that is too spectacular. He enters into historical discussions through the lives of three fictional characters: Soho Eckstein, Mrs. Eckstein, and Felix Teitelbaum. Their individual lives are set against the wide, political landscape of South Africa as well as the deeper forces of life like renewal and destruction. The various vectors of thoughts, feelings, and inner turmoil of the characters, represented sometimes by animals or lines or other markings, spill across Kentridge's images and frames. The personal and public become critically mixed, neither free of guilt nor completely capable of redemption.  In Stereoscope, 1999 Soho Eckstein is portrayed as interconnected with both images of the social injustices and upheaval of South Africa and his own sort of primal, fractured existence. The stereoscope, a device used to unite split images into the illusion of a coherent visual field, represents exactly what Kentridge does not allow in the film. He instead uses his method of erasure to move between disparate images and situations, not a presentation of a unified field but a shifting scene of energetic connections and splits. The result is a work that can face the humanity of the individual without expunging guilt and address larger issues in society without trite, easy solutions. From https://www.thebroad.org/art/william-kentridge. For more information about William Kentridge:Previously on The Quarantine Tapes:William Kentridge: https://quarantine-tapes.simplecast.com/episodes/the-quarantine-tapes-064-william-kentridge“William Kentridge: In Praise of Shadows”: https://www.thebroad.org/art/special-exhibitions/william-kentridge-praise-shadowsWilliam Kentridge: In Praise of Shadows: https://www.amazon.com/William-Kentridge-Shadows-Ed-Schad/dp/1636810667“Lexus L/Studio - Conversation Portrait, William Kentridge”: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNx0lH090IM“A Show About Colonial Power, Born From the Freedom to Make Mistakes”: https://www.nytimes.com/2022/11/15/theater/houseboy-kentridge-lace-phala.html“William Kentridge: ‘The history of the 20th century shows us the danger of all claims to certainty'”: https://www.ft.com/content/5589fd2b-6fb1-4d77-a90d-ac44a1d2fd52“William Kentridge wows the world”: https://mg.co.za/friday/2022-11-11-william-kentridge-wows-the-world-and-his-centenarian-father/

Ben Luke talks to William Kentridge about his influences—from the worlds of literature, music, film and, of course, art—and the cultural experiences that have shaped his life and work. Kentridge was born in 1955 in Johannesburg, South Africa, and began his career making large-scale drawings. But his work has grown to encompass film and video installation, sculpture, tapestry, sound, performance, and puppetry. It teems with imagery and ideas, reflecting on his autobiography, on the inequities of Apartheid South Africa, but also on broader histories from colonialism to communism and beyond. He discusses being surrounded by Miró and Matisse as a child, his homages to Beckmann and Manet, the enduring power of composers like Shostakovich and early filmmakers like Georges Méliès, and the poetry of Vladimir Mayakovsky. Plus, he gives insight into life in his studio, and answers our usual questions, including the ultimate: what is art for?William Kentridge, Royal Academy of Arts, London, until 11 December; William Kentridge: Oh To Believe in Another World, Goodman Gallery, London, 1 October-12 November.

Lola Arias is a well-known and influential Latin American theatre director, writer and filmmaker. Her powerful stage pieces are created from real life testimony. She gathers material for these works by talking to and workshopping with people who have witnessed, or been part of a particular, sometimes traumatic, shared experience. These people then become her actors, performing their lives in the theatre. She tells Tina Daheley about her working methods and her works including ‘Minefield', where she brought together British and Argentinian veterans from the 1982 Falklands war, ‘The Day I Was Born' which included people from different political sides during the Chilean dictatorship of Augusto Pinochet and her latest piece, Lengua Madre, Mother Tongue, exploring motherhood in the 21st Century. This year Kaunas, Lithuania's second largest city, is one of the three European Capitals of Culture 2022. It's a place with a troubled past and one the topics being explored during this year of Culture is its forgotten or suppressed history. One of the artists who's exhibiting there is William Kentridge. His family emigrated to South Africa from Lithuania more than a century ago to escape antisemitism and the pogroms. For years, the internationally acclaimed artist admits he was reluctant to visit the land of his ancestors. Kentridge, who combines his trademark charcoal drawings with animation and sculpture, is well known for tackling difficult subjects such as racial and financial inequality. Lucy Ash met him at the National Art Museum in Kaunas at his exhibition called That Which We Do Not Remember. Sophie Jai's debut novel Wild Fires is set on the Caribbean island of Trinidad. When her main character Cassandra returns home from abroad for the funeral of her cousin Chevy, she's confronted by her intergenerational family, all living in different parts of the same house, together but separate, and the family secrets and hidden memories that have dominated their lives for decades. Sophie Jai herself was born and spent her early childhood in Trinidad until moving to Canada and she explains what drew her back to writing about Trinidad and the memories of her childhood.

In recent weeks, the United States and various countries in Europe have sought to remove colonial-era statues from public view. On episode 064 of The Quarantine Tapes, Paul Holdengräber and artist William Kentridge discuss what it means for a country to confront its violent colonial history, and the many imperfect solutions involved in that process.William Kentridge (born Johannesburg, South Africa, 1955) is internationally acclaimed for his drawings, films, theatre and opera productions.His method combines drawing, writing, film, performance, music, theatre, and collaborative practices to create works of art that are grounded in politics, science, literature and history, whilst yet maintaining a space for contradiction and uncertainty.His aesthetics are drawn from the medium of film’s own history, from stop-motion animation to early special effects. Kentridge’s drawing, specifically the dynamism of an erased and redrawn mark, is an integral part of his expanded animation and filmmaking practice, where the meanings of his films are developed during the process of their making.Kentridge’s work has been seen in museums and galleries around the world since the 1990s, including Documenta in Kassel, the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Albertina Museum in Vienna, Musée du Louvre in Paris, Whitechapel Gallery in London, Louisiana Museum in Copenhagen, the Reina Sofia museum in Madrid and the Kunstmuseum in Basel.Opera productions include Mozart’s The Magic Flute, Shostakovich’s The Nose, and Alban Berg’s operas Lulu and Wozzeck, and have been seen at opera houses including the Metropolitan Opera in New York, La Scala in Milan, English National Opera in London, Opera de Lyon, Amsterdam opera, and the Salzburg Festival.The Head & the Load, with music by composer Philip Miller and Thuthuka Sibisi and choreography by Gregory Maqoma, interweaves music, dance, projection, shadow-play and sculpture. It premiered at the Tate Turbine Hall in July 2018 and went on to the Park Avenue Amory, in New York, and the Holland Festival, in Amsterdam.In 2016, Kentridge founded the Centre for the Less Good Idea: a space for responsive thinking through experimental, collaborative and cross-disciplinary arts practices. The Centre has quickly gathered momentum and in 2020 launches a mentorship programme.Kentridge is the recipient of honorary doctorates from several universities including Yale and the University of London. In 2010, he received the Kyoto Prize. In 2012 he presented the Charles Eliot Norton Lectures at Harvard University. In 2015 he was appointed an Honorary Academician of the Royal Academy in London. In 2017, he received the Princesa de Asturias Award for the arts, and in 2018, the Antonio Feltrinelli International Prize. In 2019 he received the Praemium Imperiale award in painting in Tokyo.

This episode is taken from a conversation hosted at David Krut Projects on 17 November 2019, in conjunction with the exhibition - William Kentridge: 27 Years of collaboration with David Krut. http://davidkrutprojects.com/exhibitions/52442/52442 The panel discussion unpacked the most common questions that crop up around Kentridge’s printmaking – the creation, the editioning, the gallery presence, and how it all comes together. William Kentridge is one of the great multi-disciplinary artists of our time, whose voice resonates not only in South Africa, but all over the world. As a modern pioneer in the medium, printmaking plays a foundational role in Kentridge’s practice, with series of works overlapping and informing large-scale projects in other media. Making up the Q&A panel are individuals that have their finger on the pulse, so to speak, of Kentridge’s practice and the presence of his work in both primary and secondary markets. Master Printer Jillian Ross has been working with the David Krut Workshop since 2003 and has collaborated with Kentridge on a number of print series, including the iconic Nose series of thirty etchings, the Universal Archive extensive body of linocuts and, most recently, the large-scale Triumphs and Laments Woodcut Series. With her nuanced understanding of the role of printmaking in Kentridge’s practice, as well as the complex relationship between artist and print workshop, Ross is an expert on the fascinating process and technical aspects of the work. Amé Bell is the Director of the David Krut Projects galleries and has an immersive understanding of the “front of house” aspect of Kentridge’s work, from, documentation, to presentation in the form of exhibitions and publications, to administration and promotion of Kentridge’s work on the primary market. Dealing with questions on a daily basis from those coming in to see and purchase Kentridge’s work has given Bell an understanding of what aspects of the prints people are most intrigued by in the gallery. James Sey is the Marketing and Media Manager at Aspire Art Auctions, a progressive and dynamic South African auction house specializing in curated selections of the best art being produced on the African continent. Considering that Kentridge is one of the only living South African artists with a strong and stable presence on the secondary market, Sey’s insight into Kentridge’s work answers some of the many questions collectors have around the value and longevity of the artist’s output. The discussion will be facilitated by Jacqueline Flint, an independent writer, curator and researcher who has been engaging with Kentridge’s printmaking oeuvre to varying degrees since 2008. As with any artist, research is a vital component in making sense of the work – knowledge of the different aspects of an artist’s practice in any single work, or body of works, leads to a nuanced understanding and appreciation. In the case of Kentridge’s prints this is especially significant. David Krut Podcast is a production of David Krut Projects. Edited and produced by Hagen Gersie.

Independent curator John Schuerman thoroughly enjoyed Elizabeth Garvey’s solo exhibition “Omphalos” at Future Tense gallery in Minneapolis. The name of the exhibition comes from the Greek work for “navel” or “belly button” – it also refers to a sacred site believed by Greeks to have been the center of the world. Schuerman says Garvey contemplates what it means to be centered – physically and spiritually – with a lighthearted touch. On display through Nov. 9. Avid theater-goer Candice Beckham-Chasnoff is looking forward to seeing “The Mess in Murder Manor” at Strike Theater. “The Mess” is an improv comedy group and “Murder Manor” is a spooky show perfect for the lead-up to Halloween. Each performance begins with the same premise – six guests arrive at a stately manor for the reading of a will – but from there, it’s a mystery as to where the improv will take you. Beckham-Chasnoff saw the show last year; she says it’s always smart, funny, and a great evening’s entertainment. Performances are Oct. 19, 25, 26 and 31. Flaten Art Museum Director Jane Becker Nelson recommends paying a visit to the Perlman Teaching Museum in Northfield. There you can see two exhibitions of work by South African artist William Kentridge. Becker Nelson says Kentridge does a wonderful job of wrestling with the legacy of apartheid in a way that’s intimate and accessible. She’s particularly fond of his animation, “Second Hand Reading,” in which you can watch Kentridge (in the form of a drawing) stroll through pages of a book. On view through Nov. 20.

This podcast contains a number of audio snippets from a CD-ROM on William Kentridge published by David Krut in 1997. The first part (Techniques & Processes) deals with how Kentridge generates his ideas through drawing and that the unexpected transformative value of drawing inspires his process. Through the process of drawing, he evokes meaning. Last, Kentridge discusses scale, light and space in regards to movement, mark making and "finding the drawing" The second part covers Kentridge's Work, Life & Influences. Kentridge talks about growing up in Johannesburg and his relationship with the landscape. His University years ignited his interest in different fields of activity such as politics, drawing, theater and film-making which is noticeable in the constructed dramatic scenes of his drawings. Willam Kentridge’s collaboration with the Handspring Puppet Company catapulted him into Theater and opera. Combining animation and Puppetry on live stage inspired his installation at the Havana Biennal in Santa Fe giving way to more layers of meaning and a richer experience. Kentridge elaborates on this unique relationship. Last, Kentridge reveals his constellation of influences throughout his art career. His ways of seeing were not only developed by the lecturers, masters and artist he was exposed to but also the surroundings of the Johannesburg landscape he describes as line work in itself.

OVERVIEW William Kentridge’s large-scale new body of work, ‘Triumphs and Laments Woodcuts’, is described by Master Printer Jillian Ross and associate printers Sbongiseni Khulu and Chad Cordiero. THE HOSTS Jillian Ross – Introduces the Project Ross, the David Krut Workshop Master Printer, oversaw the project and conceptualized it closely with William Kentridge. Ross introduces the woodcut series, it’s history, concept and each exhibiting artwork. Sbongiseni Khulu – A Personal Perspective Sbongiseni, a David Krut Printer, reflects on the uncertainty and complexity inherent in a print workshop-artist working relationship. Sbongiseni explains an error on Kentridge’s Mantegna and how this resolved, revealing what it is like to work with Kentridge. Chad Cordeiro – The Wood Chad, a David Krut Printer, explains the complex technical aspects of choosing and carving wood as well as the sudden mishaps that arise which make printing a highly skilled task! BACKGROUND ‘Triumphs and Laments Woodcuts’ consists of three large-scale woodcuts, ‘Mantegna’, ‘The Flood’ and ‘Lampedusa’, based on the initial drawings of the artist’s monumental 'Triumphs and Laments' frieze across the Tiber River in Rome. The exhibition also showcases a state proof of ‘Mantegna’ with William Kentridge's edits pinned onto it; the original woodblocks used to print ‘The Flood’ - which will continue to be used – and an exploded version of ‘Lampedusa’ which shows the woodcut unassembled as it is made on various papers and stitched together. Each print is made from multiple blocks of wood, prepared from a variety of wood timbers, and printed on several sheets of paper that, when assembled, fit together like pieces of a puzzle. Some sheets were cut at sharp angles, others torn. Pieces were also attached to the work by Kentridge in the last stages of production and allowed for overlaps of image and movement. The works are so complex, guidelines for assemblage are provided on a map made on acetate and an accompanying instruction manual. www.davidkrut.com
