William Kentridge (Self-Portrait as a Coffee-Pot | MUBI)
William Kentridge's extraordinary nine-part series “Self-Portrait As A Coffee-Pot” is a vast, self-exploration into the creative labyrinthine mind of a prolific visual artist. In his discussion with Tiller, William ponders over the winding road of his creative process (3:30), how he interviewed himself for the film (9:30), uncovering the unconscious artistry within himself (21:00), the invaluable contribution of a talented editor (32:00), how he brought the film into museums (39:30) and creating art that defies our algorithms (45:30).
