Trade Review
“Fineberg (Art Since 1940: Strategies of Being) fills out the body of references that inform Aycock’s drawings and emphasizes the capaciousness of her curiosities. Fineberg’s tone is clear and elucidating, while also capturing his subject’s deep sense of play.”—Publishers Weekly * Publishers Weekly *
“Including over one hundred works, Some Stories Are Worth Repeating is the first comprehensive exploration of Alice Aycock’s creative process.”—College Art Association, Committee on Women in the Arts * College Art Association, Committee on Women in the Arts *
