WILLIAM KENTRIDGE (B. 1955)Drawing from the History of the Main Complaint 1996 signed and dated '96charcoal and pastel on paper123 by 160 cm.48 7/16 by 63 in.Footnotes:ProvenanceAnnandale Galleries, SydneyPrivate Collection, SydneyAcquired directly from the above by the present ownerLiterature Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev, William Kentridge, Brussels 1998, p. 112, illustrated in colour Dan Cameron, Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev, J.M. Coetzee, William Kentridge, London 1999, p. 87, illustrated in colourCaptivating and poignant, Drawing for the Main Complaint is one of twenty-one large-scale drawings constituting Kentridge's film, 'History of the Main Complaint.' The present work's expansive scale and gestural execution coupled with its thematic exploration of apartheid, colonialism, memory, and time firmly establish Kentridge as a significant artist who has made a compelling contribution to contemporary art. Other drawings from the film are housed in esteemed collections such as the Museum of Modern Art, New York and the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago, affirming the importance of the present work, and of Kentridge's stature as one of today's most notable living artists. In the present work Kentridge is rendering a striking portrayal of an austere black-and-white hospital ward with curtains drawn around a solitary bed, revealing only two discernible hints of red and blue – red in the light on the wall to the right and blue in the bowl of water to the left. These sparingly applied colours carry profound aesthetic and allegorical significance, transforming into a device imbued with powerful symbolism. Drawing lies at the core of Kentridge's artistic practice. 'I guess it all starts from charcoal drawings; you can change charcoal as quickly as you can change your mind. There's a flexibility and granularity that I really like.' (the artist in an interview with Tate, London, William Kentridge – 'Art Must Defend the Uncertain' | Artist Interview | TateShots, youtube.com/Tate, 20 April 2018) This immediacy becomes palpable in the artwork, where the velvety smudged lines and sooty surface coalesce to deliver a tactile and evocative visual experience. Each drawing represents a singular scene within the animation, changing subtly through the swift process of erasing and redrawing with each new image photographed in 16 or 35-mm film. The lingering imprints of these stages on the paper transcend their physicality, emerging as an important metaphor for the layering of memory, a central and resonant theme that permeates Kentridge's extensive body of work. Kentridge comments further on his unique and labour-intensive process, 'The technique I use is to have a sheet of paper stuck up on the studio wall and, halfway across the room, my camera, usually an old Bolex. A drawing is started on the paper, I walk across to the camera, shoot one or two frames, walk back to the paper, change the drawing (marginally), walk back to the camera, walk back to the paper, to the camera, and so on. So that each sequence as opposed to each frame of the film is a single drawing. In all, there may be twenty drawings to a film rather than the thousands one expects. It is more like making a drawing than making a film (albeit a grey, battered, and rubbed-out drawing). Once the film, editing, adding sound, music, and so on proceeds like any other.' (the artist in: C. Christov-Bakargiev, William Kentridge, Brussels 1998, pp. 61-64).Hypnotic and deeply moving, Kentridge's films go beyond politics to express a profound humanitarian perspective. They are a powerful collection of images tapping into a shared consciousness. Viewed collectively, these films evoke a lingering, almost overwhelming sadness extending beyond the confines of Johannesburg. 'History of the Main Complaint' is featured in many prominent publications and holds a pivotal place in Kentridge's filmography. Editions of the film are found in the collections of prestigious institutions such as the Museum of Modern Art, New York and Tate London.Drawing from the Main Complaint features in the sixth film, 'History of the Main Complaint,' which spans 5 minutes and 50 seconds. It is a part of Kentridge's ongoing series of animations entitled 'Drawings for Projection,' initiated in 1989. Created in 1996 during the Truth and Reconciliation Commission's initial hearings in post-apartheid South Africa, 'History of the Main Complaint' delves into the profound social and historical wounds inflicted by apartheid. The Commission, established under Archbishop Desmond Tutu, aimed to address human rights abuses during the apartheid era through public hearings where individuals recounted personal suffering for reparation and reconciliation. Kentridge's film centres on the theme of white responsibility, portraying a 'medical' investigation into Soho Eckstein, a white property-developing magnate, and the protagonist in preceding films. As Soho lies comatose in a hospital ward, weighed down by the burdens of his past actions and those implicated by his race and class, MRIs and CAT scans visually articulate his affliction. Memories of violence against black South Africans permeate the screen, reflecting the intricate interplay between individual and collective guilt. Soho's awakening from his coma hinges on acknowledging his personal responsibility, embodying a powerful revelation of conscience within the broader narrative of societal healing and historical reckoning. Kentridge's work has been exhibited in renowned museums and galleries worldwide since the 1990s, including the Albertina Museum in Vienna, Musée du Louvre in Paris, Whitechapel Gallery in London, Louisiana Museum in Copenhagen, the Reina Sofia Museum in Madrid, the Kunstmuseum in Basel, Zeitz MOCAA, and the Royal Academy of Arts in London. He has also been featured multiple times in Documenta in Kassel (2012, 2002, 1997) and the Venice Biennale (2015, 2013, 2005, 1999, and 1993).This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: * AR* VAT on imported items at a preferential rate of 5% on Hammer Price and the prevailing rate on Buyer's Premium.AR Goods subject to Artists Resale Right Additional Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

CARLOS CRUZ-DIEZ (1923-2019)Induction Chromatique á Double Fréquence Montalbán 11 2016 signed, signed with the artist's initials, titled, dated and inscribed PARIS 2016 and EDA on a plaque affixed to the reversechromatography on aluminium 100 by 150 cm. 39 3/8 by 59 1/16 in.Footnotes:This work is accompanied by a photo-certificate of authenticity issued by the Cruz-Diez Art Foundation, Paris.Provenance Atelier Cruz-Diez, ParisAcquired directly from the above by the present owner in 2016Exhibited Madrid, In Situ Art Projects, Odalys Group, Ambientación Cromática Montalbán 11: Carlos Cruz-Diez, 2016-2017Carlos Cruz-Diez, one of the leading protagonists of the Kinetic and Optical Art movements, was born in Caracas, Venezuela in 1923 to parents who encouraged his artistic inclinations at an early age. When he was seventeen, Cruz-Diez enrolled at the Art School of Caracas and supported himself as an illustrator and graphic designer. After cementing his career as an artist and deciding to expand his practice, Cruz-Diez moved to Europe, first living in Spain, and later settling in France in 1960. With Victor Vasarely, Joseph Albers and Bridget Riley as contemporaries, Cruz-Diez merged Pop-Art, Kinetic Art, and Op-Art to explore ways in which art can be interactive. He has dedicated his life to the research of colour, line and perception and is widely considered as one of the greatest artists of the 21st century. Induction Chromatique á Double Fréquence Montalbán 11 is a superb example of artist's technique of layering colours and combining them to produce a stunning environment that demonstrates the variability and ambiguity of colour. Another work of this series is located in the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston. Cruz-Diez's work is based on the moiré effect, in which lines of contrasting colour give the viewer an impression of movement. As described by the artist himself 'the Chromatic Inductions offer a solution in order to assimilate real space and time to a static plan. A chromatic event occurs in these works and continuously evolves depending on the spectator's position but also the changes of light, in contrast to nature and the purpose of the traditional painting space.' (the artist in: Cruz-Diez, 'Induction Chromatique, 1963' cruz-diez.com, 27 February 2024) In the Induction Chromatique series, Cruz-Diez studies the phenomenon of the 'after image', also known as retinal persistence. When staring at a colour for a certain amount of time, the retina preserves an image of the surface even after looking away, but in its complementary colour. For example, the viewer will see the complimentary colour green after staring at a red surface for a while. In Induction Chromatique, the artist manages to stabilise and make visible a fleeting phenomenon, that can only be observed under particular circumstances. Cruz-Diez shows that the colour induced on our retina, is just as real as the painted colour; essentially depicting the two phases of the phenomenon simultaneously, creating an optical effect and providing a more intense art experience. The present work carries with it a truly remarkable cluster of sensations by removing colour from the plane and bringing it into the physical space as a reality. The work confronts the viewer with real time movement and the continuous development of colour, generated by Cruz-Diez's fascinating ability to evoke a hypnotic state. As explained by Cruz-Diez, his practice faces the viewers with a real-time event. Colour is created by the viewer through their own means of perception. In Induction Chromatique á Double Fréquence Montalbán 11 the colour gains an intrinsic value that behaves independently to affirm itself in its own environment. As seen in nature, colour is ever-evolving and in the present work, Cruz-Diez allows for this change of colour to happen, mirroring the changes that happen in nature to provoke engagement between the viewer and the work.Carlos Cruz-Diez has been in countless exhibitions, including the seminal exhibition 'The Responsive Eye' at The Museum of Modern Art, New York in 1965. In 1970, the artist was included in the 35th Venice Biennale at the Venezuelan Pavilion. In 2002, he was awarded by France the medal for Commandeur de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres. Exhibitions in New York and Houston in 2008 and 2011 brought further recognition to his work that would be followed by Op Art retrospectives at the Royal Academy, London and El Museo del Barrio, New York. Since then, Cruz-Diez has shown his works at the Tate Modern, London; Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, Madrid; The Geffen Contemporary at The Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA), Los Angeles; Centre Pompidou-Metz, Metz and the Moderna Museet, Stockholm, amongst many others.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: * AR* VAT on imported items at a preferential rate of 5% on Hammer Price and the prevailing rate on Buyer's Premium.AR Goods subject to Artists Resale Right Additional Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
