Small bump to upper board at tail; light creasing to jacket edge. In Accounts and Drawings from Underground, renowned artist William Kentridge and scholar Rosalind C. Morris bring us an unprecedented collaboration, taking pages of the 1906 Cash Book of the East Rand Proprietary Mines Corporation in South Africa and transforming them into something entirely new. While Kentridge contributed breathtaking landscape drawings in response to the transient terrain mining created, Morris plumbed the text of the cash book to generate a unique narrative account.
