Kiki Smith, working from taxidermy specimens, isolates small creatures on wide expanses of white ground, but renders their feathers with an intimate tenderness.   Smith has been commercially as well as artistically successful. Reconstructing the Moon, a 1997 show at Pace Wildenstein Gallery in SoHo, showcased recent pieces in a variety of media, which Steven Madoff of the New York Times described as more "dreamlike" than work of earlier periods. Linked in inventive ways around the theme of the moon, the show included cast-glass birds' nests with eggs, etchings called "destruction of birds," and a statue and drawings of a young girl. "The implication, from nest and egg to diagrammed dead birds, was that the growing child is also part of nature's inevitable cycle," according to Art News. Connected to the other pieces in the show was Kiki Smith's painting of the moon on eighty-three panes of opalescent glass installed on shelves from floor to ceiling on the front wall of a gallery.   Accordian-fold; Black paper covers. 5 in X 42 in (two sided) 28 BIRDS Publisher: New York City : Pace Wildenstein, 1997.
