Nothing is quite what it seems in the work of William Kentridge. The South African artist is hard to pin down, working in an eclectic range of mediums across media, from drawing, to tapestry, theatre, films and opera. Often political, often playful, Kentridge’s work considers significant themes – notably colonialism and accepted historical narratives – in unexpected, culturally curious ways.

It is a fluidity present in Kentridge’s largest exhibition to focus on sculpture outside South Africa. In ‘The Pull of Gravity’ at Yorkshire Sculpture Park, Kentridge unites over 40 works, made from 2007 to the present day, in a large exhibition situated both inside and outside, becoming a striking focal point of Yorkshire’s landscape.
