William Kentridge’s large and medium scale bronzes, from the Lexicon project are an accumulation of elementalsymbols within the artist’s larger practice. This sculptural vocabulary is comprised of the icons, ubiquitous in Kentridge’s creations, which are dispersed throughout all of the media in which he works.

As a series of bronze sculptures, each work functions as part of the artist’s visual dictionary and broader language.These sculptures are symbols, glyphs, suggested words or icons used throughout Kentridge’s practice.

These sculptures were showcased in Why Should I Hesitate: Sculpture at the Norval Foundation, Cape Town, SouthAfrica.
