The images and essays in the handsome accompanying catalogue are a
testament to the connections, departures, and complexity of
Simpson's recent output. Throughout the book we see that while
Simpson finds new possibilities in drawing, she also nods,
sometimes quite slyly, to deep-set traditions. As MoMA curator
Connie Butler aptly notes in her essay, " The intimacy of the paper
she chooses, consistently the 8 1/2x11 sheet of the notebook or
sketchpad, is a scale close to photography's ancient history as
well. "
