South African artist at MOMA reminds us of the film industry’s beginnings
South African Artist, William Kentridge, combines art and film at the MOMA. William is best known for his animated films which he creates through filming his drawing.
The creations can only remind us how films like Avatar first started. It was back in the day when Eadweard Muybridge begun using multiple cameras to capture motion. It was his device the zoopraxiscope that gave early filmmakers the idea of the film strip that is used today bringing motion to life.Visit the MOMA through May 17th for a taste of the work of William Kentridge. Hopefully you will be inspired.

Colors: Fernando Carpaneda, sculptor, “The Gazelle Doll”
Brasilian Artist Fernando Carpaneda is a true renegade. His brave viewpoints of people who society’s sees as “outcasts”. Born in Taguatinga, a small city in the capital of Brazil, Fernando participated in the genesis of this countries punk movement. During this time, he was arrested several times for minor disturbances and it was then when he discovered his passion for sculpting. “I make portraits of rent boys, punks, junkies, thieves and outcasts… Instead of attaching myself to muses, I focus on male nudes to compose my art pieces, having the human being, the masculine, as my main goal in my work. All my portraits are like a relic, a holy place, a moment caught in time. I use objects that have a connection to the portrayed person to composing my work, such as cigarette butts, condoms, beer cans, underwear, semen, and empty toothpaste boxes. In other words, things that are part of these people’s real world, and my own. I use such objects and remains as a beginning for my portraits” In this episode, Fernando Carpaneda discusses his new creation, “The Gazelle Doll.” His work was recently shown in the Leslie Lohman Gallery and across the world.
