“For Carol Becker, traveler, there are no roads; she makes her path as she walks and takes the only road that can be taken, the ethical one. And along her extraordinary path, she creates spaces of hope and resistance. Her long journey takes us to centers of western culture and helps us separate the culture from the spectacle―and identifies the difficulties ahead…” – Alfredo Jaar, artist, architect, filmmaker, MacArthur Fellow

“Her drawing conveys a lot of the underlying feeling of what’s going on in the same way a movie can have a shot without dialogue that’s a major turning point or a major insight into a character. It’s a delicate balancing act. The pictures have to propel the story without overtaking it. That balance — it’s almost a tension — occurs when a cartoonist is equally good as a writer and artist, and it’s very rare.” – Bill Griffith, the creator of Zippy the Pinhead.

Welcome Reception and INsideOUT will NOT be open to the public. We hope to open to the public for Residency #183.
