Installation, Kit Keith: I Live Alone 

KIT KEITH: I LIVE ALONE
THROUGH JULY 16, 2021
CLOSING RECEPTION, THURSDAY, JULY 15, 5 - 7 PM

Inspired by outsider art and artists such as Robert Rauschenberg and Andy Warhol, legendary St. Louis artist Kit Keith will often paint over found materials from thrift stores, old magazines and advertisements. This exhibition consists of over fifty female portraits, each one painted with acrylic on found onion skin letterhead and created over a few months’ time during the pandemic. Each portrait is reflective of the artist’s disposition on the day on which it was created.  Whether happiness, angst, relief, contentment, frustration, anger, joy or loneliness, each portrait conveys in itself, a feeling.
