SUMMARY:Visual History Lab 2019: A Social History Reading of the William Ke
 ntridge Exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Basel
DESCRIPTION:The Visual History Lab at the Centre for African Studies takes 
 place  yearly. It is a learning format\, which allows students to spend on
 e week  working intensively on a particular topic. The lab ends with a pub
 lic  event\, which students organise themselves.The Visual History Lab  20
 19 is concerned with the William Kentridge exhibition at the Museum of  Co
 ntemporary Art (Museum für Gegenwartskunst) in Basel\, which is on  show 
 between June and October 2019. William Kentridge is one of the most  renow
 ned and internationally recognised South African visual artists.We  will e
 xplore how 20th century South African history is addressed in  Kentridge
 ’s oeuvre\, and situate him as an artist in the politics and  aesthetics
  of South African artistic production\, a critical domain in  which questi
 ons of race\, class and gender are negotiated in exciting and  often provo
 cative ways. Likewise\, a Kentridge show in Basel will  provide the opport
 unity to discuss if and how his art speaks to  audiences in here\, and in 
 what ways the exhibition might invite us to  think about the arts\, race\,
  class and gender in a Basel context.
