“Vanessa is one of the rare artists who invented a new way to make a work of art......ninety-nine percent of artists are treading ground that’s already well established, they are making small innovations, and then there are very rare artists who come up with a whole new concept of how to make a work of art and expand our sense of what a work of art can be. Vanessa has done that.” Jeffrey Deitch
