Exposition. Kiki SMITH: Night

18 mars 1998 - 21 juin 1998

USA, Washington D.C., Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden

"American artist Kiki Smith (b. 1954), whose expressive work in paper, glass, wax, and bronze helped redefine body imagery in the late 1980s, creates a poetic ecosystem in darkened space. A diorama-like photo-etching provides a backdrop for silhouetted and three-dimensional sculptures of birds, stars, flowers, rabbits, cats, snowflakes, raindrops, eggs, and other elements of the natural world. Smith?s visits to natural history museums provided inspiration, in part, for this metaphorical, nocturnal environment. A brochure by Associate Curator Phyllis Rosenzweig accompanies the show."
