The Smiths Tony, Kiki, Seton Published by Palm Beach Institute of Contemporary Art. Artwork by Seton Smith, Kiki Smith, Tony Smith. Edited by Michael Rush. Text by Gilbert Brownstone, Eleanor Heartney, David Pagel, Adrian Dannatt. Not your typical family, the Smith household consisted of renowned architect and modernist Tony Smith and his daughters, artist Kiki Smith, whose multimedia works have drawn on mythic, folk, and biblical stories, and photographer Seton Smith, known for her large-format Cibachromes of seemingly banal interiors. For the first time, works by all three Smiths appear together, presenting one American family, two generations of the vanguard, three distinct visions, and the exigencies of a range of media.
