Start at the Gallery: Make it Move

Come on an infinite journey of motion and movement, making shapes shuffle, puppets pop, and shadows shift and dance. Be inspired by the powerful, dynamic moving image works of William Kentridge and a fascinating array of video and animation art throughout the collection.
