Review Quotes:

"Sarah Sze's extraordinary work is a rare convergence of beauty, passion, energy, and intelligence." --Pauline Willis, Director, American Federation of the Arts

"Sarah Sze's sculptures are models of how we think - or don't or don't often think enough - about time and space. In that sense they are everything a sculpture can and should hope to be." --Nick Compton, Wallpaper

"Sze's work routinely refuses the viewer the safety of a single viewpoint. Sculpture that's insistently on the brink, it seesaws constantly from art to life, and back again." --Christian Viveros Faune, Village Voice

"Sarah Sze's impossibly intricate installation pieces are wonders of balance and imagination."--Christian Viveros Faune, City A.M.

On the Contemporary Artists Series

"The boldest, best executed, and most far-reaching publishing project devoted to contemporary art. These books will revolutionize the way contemporary art is presented and written about."--Artforum

"The combination of intelligent analysis, personal insight, useful facts and plentiful pictures is a superb format invaluable for specialists but also interesting for casual readers, it makes these books a must for the library of anyone who cares about contemporary art."--Time Out

"A unique series of informative monographs on individual artists."--The Sunday Times

"Gives the reader the impression of a personal encounter with the artists. Apart from the writing which is lucid and illuminating, it is undoubtedly the wealth of lavish illustrations which makes looking at these books a satisfying entertainment."--The Art Book
