Laurie Simmons

Laurie Simmons' work has been interpreted by many as a commentary on the feminist reaction to the domestic roles of the 1950s. In this revealing interview with Sarah Charlesworth, Simmons makes her own motivations clear. Her work often employs objects from her childhood--dolls, toys, plastic trucks, and so on--and here she fills in the details of her process. With numerous beautifully reproduced illustrations, this edition is a must for anyone interested in Laurie Simmons' work.
