Kiki Smith

Firstly, let me start out by saying I was expecting the wrong artist! I was confused for a hot second when she came out because I was expecting someone of a whole different race and age. Honestly, I am not even sure how the heck that happened. The talk itself was kind of underwhelming. She did not seem prepared to speak at all. She talked more about the thousand and one things she did to each piece of art more than why she created them and the weight they were meant to carry. I am not a fan of her art and am mildly disappointed. There were quite a few pieces that looked very crude and unfinished, which is not what I expected of an artist of her caliber.She did not even get through all of her pictures and she seemed to have ran out of time which really makes me believe she was highly unprepared. In short, I would have rather been in class, I think.
