Seen in Solitude is the hardcover catalog of Kipniss's major prints retrospective of 86 works at the New Orleans Museum of Art in early 2006, a selection of the artist's lithographs, drypoints, and mezzotints created between 1968 and 2005. It was the first exhibition presented at the museum following the devastation of Hurricane Katrina and traveled to four more museums through 2009. In his critical essay, curator Daniel Piersol places Kipniss among “such esteemed predecessors as Paul Cézanne (1839-1906) and Giorgio Morandi (1890-1964)” and follows his trajectory as a printmaker through the decades. He draws stylistic parallels between Kipniss’s work and that of George Inness, René Magritte, Mark Tobey, and the poet Rainer Maria Rilke, each of whom projected a unique vision against those of their contemporaries. In an artist’s statement, Kipniss asserts, “I have always felt that wherever you are, everything is there. You just have to learn how to see it. While I have worked with a limited number of subjects—trees, houses, chairs—it’s really very limitless. I know this by having gone back to the same landscape over a period of time; every time I go there, I see a different landscape.” This book is out of print.
