Kiki Smith’s seventh solo exhibition at Krakow Witkin Gallery began as a way to present the artist’s largest editioned print, “Wooden Moon.” With source imagery from a German volume on the moon, woodblocks engraved in China and then printed onto paper and assembled as a magnificent 96 x 147 inch work, “Wooden Moon” welcomes the viewer into a world of Smith’s interpretations. Throughout the show, through drawing, photography, sculpture, and print, the artist’s mastery of processes, historic and contemporary representations of imagery, a deep and vast appreciation for that which surrounds us (in both space and time), as well as a commitment to personal vision all provide an opportunity for appreciation, exploration, and reflection.
