William Knipscher, Trace No. 5

Poignant and perhaps our favorite piece so far. The leaves, though wilted, seem to flutter in the frame, possessed by second life:

William Knipscher, Trace No. 5
C-print, 2008, 38 × 28 inches

We hope you won’t neglect to try Souheil Chaouachi’s liquid interpretation of Trace No. 5. By all accounts, it’s delicious and still available at Teatro Goldoni, the winning bar from last year (1909 K St NW).
