FEATURED IMAGE

Cindy Sherman

Featured image, "Untitled #74" (1980), is reproduced from Cindy Sherman, the catalog to the artist's landmark mid-career retrospective, opening this week at The Museum of Modern Art, New York. According to The New York Times' Carol Vogel, "As visitors get off the escalator at MoMA, they will be enveloped in 18-foot-tall images of Ms. Sherman standing amid a bucolic black-and-white setting that she shot in Central Park. 'It’s like walking into Cindyland,' [curator Eva] Respini said on a recent afternoon as she was overseeing workers applying the contact paper to the museum’s walls.
There Ms. Sherman emerges in yet another mind-boggling array of characters: a circus juggler; a woman clad in a body suit with pointy bosoms, nipples and pubic hair (discovered in a Tokyo department store); an aging woman in a long red dress.
'You think you may know them,' Ms. Respini said. 'But in fact the more you look at them, the more complex and darker they seem. The same could be said of Cindy. How can such a mild-mannered, nice woman have such a wicked imagination that keeps inventing these fantastical characters over and over again?'"

"Isn't life less interesting without some fiction in it? It's boring if there is only truth. Besides, photographs are fictions in themselves."
