Catalogue Note
“Today, her sculptures can be experienced as a vital part of art history, and her voice is just as original and authentic as those of her predecessors. Her contribution has developed during a time when questions of authorship and authenticity were posed with greater force and urgency…Sherrie Levine has continued to pursue this line of inquiry with consequence and audacity.”
