Reviews

"What the show and its excellent catalogue accomplish is both substantial and memorable. They reassert the stature of the genre's most brilliant practitioner, critically resuscitate a reputation too little known today, provide an expansive context of related work (especially colored sculpture) and offer abundant supporting material and at the end, provide an unexpected but provocative twist.”
