Sherman is considered one of the greatest Modern artists of the last 40 years... Essentially, she makes self portraits in various characterizations that make statements about feminism, aging, sexuality, pornography, youth, aristocracy, pop culture and lonely Narcissism.
The New York Times review of Cindy Sherman informs: "she is famous for working solo in her studio, without assistants. Part of the power of her images is their home-alone quality. We know that everything we see in a Sherman image she put there, deliberately, decisively."
MoMA's Cindy Sherman is great fun...A great deal of it is the big gaudy colorful stuff...
I found the smaller early works the most fascinating and insighful to what made the artist tick...
