Notes:

Published on the occasion of the exhibition: William Kentridge: Towards a Model Opera. Ullens Center for Contemporary Art, Bejing. June 27-August 30, 2015. Curated by UCCA director Philip Tinari with assistant curator, Zoe Diao.

Summary:

The artist's personal notebooks--filled with annotations, drawings and ideas--were meticulously reproduced in this eponymous publication to allow the reader into Kentridge's own thought process. With an in-depth profile of Kentridge by author Andrew Solomon, and essays by China art historian Alfreda Murck and UCCA director Philip Tinari, Notes Towards a Model Opera is a personal exploration of the layered meanings behind the aesthetics and ideals of socialist China as well as an exploration of the artist himself.
