WILLIAM KENTRIDGE

For his inaugural exhibition with Hauser & Wirth in New York, William Kentridge will present his acclaimed nine-episode film series ‘Self-Portrait as a Coffee Pot’ and more than forty-five drawings integral to its creation alongside a group of sculptural works. This immersive installation will occupy two floors of the gallery’s 22nd Street building and is the first time the drawings from the film series will be on view to the public. Transforming the first floor into a space evocative of the artist’s own working environment and highlighting the integral relationship between drawing and sculpture throughout the second floor, ‘A Natural History of the Studio’ invites visitors to step into Kentridge’s creative process and explore the complex ways in which his work reveals truths about the ways we think, live and relate to one another.
