Light

Quai des Bergues 15-17 Geneva, 1201, Switzerland Wednesday, September 9, 2020–Saturday, October 31, 2020


Geneva -Pace is honoured to return to its physical space with an exhibition of recent works by American artist Kiki Smith. Staged at 15-17 Quai des Bergues, Light will be presented from 9 September to 31 October 2020 and will examine Smith’s central themes of spirituality, mortality, mysticism, and their interconnections with the natural world. The first exhibition of Smith’s work presented at Pace in Geneva, Light will coincide with Hearing You with My Eyes, a solo-exhibition presented at MCBA Musée cantonal des Beaux‑Arts of Lausanne (9 October 2020 – 10 January 2021). Storm King Art Center currently features a site-responsive grouping of new and recent, large-scale flag works by Smith. It is on view until November 9, 2020.

Light follows the 2019 critically acclaimed exhibitions of Smith presented at Monnaie de Paris, France, and Modern Art Oxford, UK. Thirty years ago, Smith was the subject of an exhibition at Centre d’Art Contemporain de Genève. It was Smith’s first solo-exhibition in Europe. On the occasion of the MCBA Musée cantonal des Beaux‑Arts’ exhibition, a fully illustrated catalogue is forthcoming.
