“In her pursuit of strangers, Calle presents a kind of artistic Zeno’s paradox: the closer you get to someone else, the more you realize the distance separating you.” —Madeleine Schwartz in THE NY REVIEW OF BOOKS
Kate Wolf writes in XTRA: “An evangelist for sexual pleasure and unmitigated female sexuality, Iannone’s bold embrace of sex and love in her work is matched by an equally if not more robust drive toward narrative construction and inventive forms of autobiography.”
Mary Mann writes in LA REVIEW OF BOOKS: “Whenever Diary gets down to details, Cage is more concerned with changing our reactions to the world than with changing the world itself. “
Richard Kraft writes in BOOKFORUM: “These works speak quietly, often of everyday things, and yet each leaves a deep impression that lingers long after the book has been put back on the shelf.”
Catherine Wagely writes in LA REVIEW OF BOOKS: “Because the book does not seem to be about but of Iannone, it presents an ideal opportunity to ask: Why does the 82-year-old artist feel so relevant and sage-like to women decades younger?”
Alan Gilbert writes in HYPERALLERGIC: “A work in which the visual dimension has become as multifaceted as the textual one.”
