Review Quotes:

"Nereson's navigation of the relationship between the kinesthetic ordering of movement and the narrative ordering of the past in Jones's work is compelling. The focus into his Abraham Lincoln works from 2006-2013 allows her to deeply analyze the artistry using sophisticated critical theory at the site of race, gender, and sexuality while indicating the importance of and implications for Jones's other works."

--Nadine George-Graves, Northwestern University
