Note: Part II is part of a larger exhibit, The Puppet Show, on view from May 24 to August 9.
Part two of the Santa Monica Museum of Art's The Puppet Shows picks up where part one left off, as a varied cadre of artists explore the metaphor of puppetry through various media. In Janie Geiser's "peep-show/diorama/performance," The Reptile Under the Flowers flirts with live video, while in Caitlin Lainoff's Le Petit Macabre, animation and a kazoo invoke the precariousness of our intergalactic existence. Geiser and Lainoff are just a few of the exhibition's nearly 30 artists, whose ranks include heavy hitters like Kara Walker and Kiki Smith.
