  • Catalogue Essay

    Barney’s singularity comes from the scope and surreal density of his associations, between the interior of the body, sexual differentiation, obsessive athletic perfectionism, medical technology, Greek and Celtic myth, and landscape and architecture, all of which miraculously congeal into works that are luxuriantly beautiful and physically and emotionally disorienting. D. Baird, “Matthew Barney: The Cremaster Cycle”, The Brooklyn Rail, April, 2003, .n.p.
