Lorna Simpson's 1957-2009 Interior April 25, 2010

Composed of 52 gelatin silver prints arranged in five grids, this 2009 work includes found photos from the 1950s and Simpson's reenactment of them in the studio. For the first time Simpson (American, b. 1961) puts herself into the field of vision -- in male attire, masquerade, and makeup that foregrounds questions of aging and youth.
