Review
"a must-read in the form of the wall texts and the catalogue... [I]f you regard the show as necessarily more elusive and renegade, an extension of the catalogue as our only means of recapturing this couple's evanescent art, the rewards, subtle and cerebral and, yes, moral, are many." -- Christopher Millis, The Boston Phoenix "enchanting... hefty catalog bubbles with chatty, thoughtful reminiscences by students, artists, and curators who knew the pair." -- The Boston Globe "Their work benefits more than most from the documentation this book makes so generously available, a book that is sure to make their influence on succeeding generations of artists even clearer." -- Publishers Weekly
