Abstract

Kiki Smith is one of the most outstanding American artists of her generation. This volume presents some of her previously unpublished commentaries that reveal the richness of a universe in which women represent humankind and engage in a dialogue, alongside animals, with nature and the cosmos. Reworking legends, fairy stories and great episodes from the Bible, she gives a new voice to female saints and sorceresses.

Paris, La Monnaie, October 2019 - February 2020
