REVIEWS

“Looking at all the works, it was hard to decipher precisely what Wilcoxon’s images might mean, but that is part of the fun. She hovered successfully between figurative content and obfuscation, yet always managed to evoke a feeling, thereby making specific meaning irrelevant.”

Christine Brenneman Artweek

“Heather Wilcoxon is one of those people with a grotesque sense of humor and sharp wit, just the type of artist we love.”

SFist.com

“Wilcoxon paintings exude hopes and sincere, direct expression. Wilcoxon treats picture surfaces like scrapbook pages in a manner reminiscent of Oakland painter Squeak Carnwath.”

Kenneth Baker San Francisco Chronicle

“Worth a Look:. Wilcoxon confides that the cartoonish figures unleashed on her canvases are her “little fuck you guys” and indeed they fit the snappish, unpleasant character of public life under the Shrub (oh, excuse me) …Bush.”

Meredith Tromble Stretcher.com

“Heather Wilcoxon’s paintings of large balloons with malevolent cartoon characters scrapings between them is are a bit like Inez Storer on acid.”

Jack Fisher San Jose Mercury News

“Heather Wilcoxon’s Untitled 97 is one of most lively pieces on view The “drawing” element here is of the neo-primitive Susan Rothenberg school.”

Robert Long Long Island, New York

“These paintings open up many possibilities for speculation and interpretation. They are an invitation to play, to join Wilcoxon in her re-created dreams and memories.”

Frank Cebulski Artweek

“Heather Wilcoxon’s paintings are quite seasoned work with very successful handling of several contemporary representational problems.”
