Recenzii
With
an
encyclopedic
knowledge
of
Johannesburg,
Kruger
deftly
navigates
a
tsunami
of
performances,
speculations,
and
excavations
that
enable
us
to
see
how
this
city
has
lived
across
all
of
the
histories,
power
games,
and
efforts
to
rein
it
in.
Imagining
the
Edgy
City
deploys
theater,
literature,
film,
art,
and
photography
to
explore
how
all
kinds
of
desires
are
materially
etched
into
the
city's
fabric
in
an
often
uncanny
interdependency
of
the
dreamed
and
the
built,and
how
this
reciprocity
absorbs
a
multitude
of
efforts
in
all
of
their
unruly
contradictions.
