Kiki Smith: Procession

June 7 – Sept 15, 2019
Schloss Belvedere, Prinz Eugen-Straße 27, 1030 Wien, Austria

“I always think the whole history of the world is in your body,” the American artist Kiki Smith once said. Viscera, bones, breasts have been her subjects. Sculptures of a woman stepping out of a wolf, or birthed by a deer, are her own modern myths. And Smith’s recent tapestries imagine a surreal Eden, all life ecstatically interwoven. Smith’s search for the primal connection between things, as the exhibition title implies, proceeds. —L.J.
