Lorna Simpson is one of the leading artists of her generation, devoted to the beauty of image-making, juxtaposing figure and gesture with text and narrative in an innovative way.

It includes 126 reproductions from Simpson's formally elegant, subtly provocative body of work, including her recent pieces.Published 2006 164 illustrations, 54 in full color, with three 6-pg gatefolds, 158 pages, 9.5" x 10.875"
