This catalog features essays by Michael Bracewell and Craig Burnett.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Stripped of their typical narrative and commercial contexts, the fragmented collages of this collection act as visually tantalizing ciphers, reflecting the desires and imaginings of the beholder.--Jennie Waldow "Brooklyn Rail"<br>
