Quotes
To the City’s
Bridges, Billets-Doux. –THE NEW YORK TIMES
The gently voluptuous figuration
of Bascove’s work is beautiful; its most deeply felt
quality is a kind of animating tendresse all too rare today.
– ART IN AMERICA
To depict the intentionality of the
soul… that’s the hardest challenge of the visual
arts…One of those artists who try to depict the essence
of the city, the life of the city. – CHICAGO PUBLIC
RADIO
The controlled wildness, the
combination of menace and safety that have always marked
her work find a perfect subject in bridges, whose inspiration
is nature, but which defy nature; enablers of travel that
appear to be still and yet tremble and sigh, shudder with
the secret, terrifying force of all great lovers.
–
MARY GORDON
Bascove brings passionate geometry
to her paintings of the various bridges, evoking the exhilarating,
fearsome beauty of these ‘iron rainbows.’
– THE WASHINGTON POST
Moody paintings that seem of
another time and place…each one is a story; there
is mystery here.
-- CONNECTICUT PUBLIC RADIO
In Bascove’s paintings the world has been simplified,
resolved; it has become a place of contemplation.
--AMERICAN ARTIST
