William Kentridge, artist
In a special opening-day event for William Kentridge: Five Themes, the artist presents a lecture-format solo performance. I am not me, the horse is not mine premiered at the 16th Biennale of Sydney in June 2008 (and shares a title with a related projection making its U.S. debut in SFMOMA’s Kentridge exhibition). The performance focuses on the development process of Kentridge’s upcoming opera production, The Nose, for the Metropolitan Opera in New York. A book signing follows.
