Visual artist and director Kentridge applies his unique theatrical vision to Berg’s modernist 20th century masterpiece about a notorious femme fatale who shatters lives, including her own. The story is filled with the psychosexual politics of German Expressionism. Kentridge, a South African-born artist, is known for combining drawing, animation, filmmaking, and collage. As one of the world’s most preeminent visual artists, his work has been the subject of major gallery shows and museum retrospectives around the world.
