William Kentridge: Journey to the Moon at Gallery TPW, a co-presentation with TIFF Future Projections
Gallery TPW is pleased to announce our first collaboration with the Toronto International Film Festival's Future Projections programme with the Toronto premiere of Journey to the Moon (2003) by acclaimed South African artist William Kentridge. The exhibition is linked to Essential Cinema, the inaugural show at TIFF Bell Lightbox which includes an exhibition and screenings of some of the most influential films of all time. With Journey to the Moon Kentridge pays homage to French director Georges Méliès' classic Voyage dans la Lune (1902), also on view at the gallery and widely considered cinema’s first science fiction film. Combining live action and stop motion animation, Journey to the Moon in part pictures the creative process as Kentridge performs for the camera, playing the scientist/artist who dreams of worlds afar but ultimately cannot escape.
