Reviews
"...a persuasive new monograph..." * New York Review of Books *
"...presents a formidable argument for Kentridge's realignment in relation to global culture, providing us with an exhilarating image of what it means to be 'contemporary up south', and a more nuanced understanding of Kentridge's unique body of work." * Burlington Contemporary *
"By examining the centrality of metaphor to Kentridge's creative processes, Maltz-Leca weaves a dense tapestry in which individual works from throughout his oeuvre are explicated in terms of the complex ways in which they relate to history, South African history in particular." * H-Net *
