Book excerpt: Exceptional because of its size, this unique exhibition will bring together nearly a hundred works, from the 1980s to the present day. Two sculptures will welcome visitors in the outer courtyards of the Monnaie de Paris and the exhibition will be spread over two levels, more than 1000m2 - especially in the heart of the historic lounges on the Seine.0The course will lead through the major themes of the artist's work, among which the human body, the female figures and the symbiosis with nature compose recurring motifs. The works presented at the Monnaie de Paris will reflect the great diversity of the practice of Kiki Smith, which explores many mediums: bronze, plaster, glass, porcelain, tapestry, paper, or wax.0Kiki Smith's art is symbolically nourished by memories of her childhood - from Grimm's and Perrault's tales to the modeling work done for her father, sculptor Tony Smith. All of her work is marked by her fascination with the human body, which she first represents in a fragmented way, the skin appearing as a fragile border with the world.00Exhibition: Monnaie de Paris, France (18.10.2019-02.02.2020).
Download or read book Kiki Smith written by Vivien Bittencourt and published by Charta Libellum. This book was released on 2006 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vincent Katz and Vivien Bittencourt's book, produced in concert with their video of the same title, traces Kiki Smith's preparations for her eight-room installation at the Fondazione Querini Stampalia in Venice, which coincided with the 2005 Venice Biennale. It places readers in the midst of the puzzling but effective modus operandi of a highly sophisticated visual artist: Smith works at home, surrounded by books, a pet bird and tiny kitchenette, and moves easily between drawing, collaging, photographing, printing, painting plaster casts and creating furniture fashioned from liquor boxes. Following her to Venice, Katz and Bittencourt observe the complex installation of this work, which proves to be an integral part of its conceptual whole. The book features fascinating and revealing transcripts of the artist's spoken words--spontaneous reflections on her life as an artist among a family of artists.
Download or read book Kiki Smith written by Petra Giloy-Hirtz and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2018-05-08 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This richly illustrated book offers a full retrospective of Kiki Smith’s work. Artist Kiki Smith has produced an astoundingly varied body of work that deals powerfully with the political, social, philosophical, and spiritual aspects of human nature—especially in the way they relate to women. Smith’s earlier works reflect the social discourse of the 1980s, particularly focusing on death and the AIDS epidemic. She later turned to issues of feminism, abortion rights, and animal rights. This comprehensive book provides an overview of Smith’s artistic development, focusing on her sculpture, from the early 1980s to the present day. Images of her radical, unflinching work reveal an artist who is not afraid to explore subjects such as the human body or a society’s archetypes. Filled with the beauty, vitality, and charm that are the hallmarks of Kiki Smith’s art, this book urges viewers to think and feel.
Download or read book Kiki Smith written by Helaine Posner and published by The Monacelli Press, LLC. This book was released on 2005-11-17 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through her explorations of the human body and the natural world, internationally acclaimed artist Kiki Smith has confronted the most urgent social and spiritual issues of our day. Direct and accessible, Smith's expressive art engages social and cultural issues in a sometimes viscerally disturbing way. In her recent work, Smith has extended these themes, incorporating rites of passage and cycles of life, death, and rebirth through an iconography of animal, human, and fairy tale imagery. Helaine Posner's monograph is a comprehensive survey of Smith's work in installation, sculpture, and graphic media. She discusses its origins and proposes an interpretive framework, locating it with the artistic traditions that have nourished Smith and tracing its development from the 1980s to present. An interview with Smith adds the artist's own perspective on the work.

Book excerpt: A multipart installation on the island of Hydra exploring mythic themes of earth and sky In 2019, multidisciplinary artist Kiki Smith (born 1954) was invited to present a site-specific project at the DESTE Foundation Project Space in Hydra, a former slaughterhouse perched on the edge of the sea. Drawing on maritime history, mythology, astronomy and site-specific anthropology, Smith combined naturalistic and fantastic elements into a multipiece composition that reflects the lived and imagined memory of both the slaughterhouse--a stage for sacrifices--and the Hydra region itself. Alongside photographs of the installation and texts by Maggie Wright and Nadja Argyropoulou, Kiki Smith: Memorypresents documentation of Smith's process for this project, which draws on a variety of mediums including sculpture, textiles and drawing.
