"Her drawing style is reminiscent of the WPA and artists such as Thomas Hart Benton, Reginald Mangold and Paul Cadmus, but hers is a complexity that belies its accessibility." -Arnold J. Kemp

"Humor is an inlet. You can seduce people with it and make them happy, and then you can sort of slap them across the face and say, 'Look again.' Humor brings people into a piece, and then they'll scratch their head and think 'Wow, what am I laughing at? Maybe this is really not so funny.'" -1997

"If female creativity has its apotheosis irl giving birth, and being female is, as some post-modern theorists tell us, inherently excessive and outside the law, then Nicole Eisenman has given us a succinct new image of the woman artist - a site of excess creation." --Eileen Myles

Nicole Eisenman at Leo Konig
Nicole Eisenman's new painting, Progress: Real and Imagined is heroic, both operatic in scope and monumental in scale.
"One final observation. "Progress: Real and Imagined" is also complex in its stylistic resolution. Eisenman's painting, firmly structured, runs the stylistic gauntlet from the sweeping to the intimate. The little "throwaway" pictures in the studio are fully resolved in their own right. Her painterliness traverses a range from cursory to crusty congealed passages. It is obvious these variations are by choice, not constraint, for her observational powers are keen as seen in the rendering of the jeans of the artist at work. By expanding her range of execution, she in effect, detaches it from "style" and allows it to function as a tool of expression."
