Hammer Museum

Made in L.A. 2016 artist Silke Otto-Knapp created this piece for the Lobby Wall, which she relates to Georgia O’Keeffe’s monumental Sky Above Clouds IV (1965), an iconic work situated in the stairwell of The Art Institute of Chicago. 

Representing sea, islands, sky, and moon amid an evasive horizon line, Otto-Knapp’s painting floats in all its dimensions, much like O’Keeffe’s canvas.
