Catalogue Note

"I don’t write out stories in the way a writer would; the situations are very loose. I never want the viewer to have to know the whole story to “get” the painting...Often I will invent hypothetical situations that can act as surrogate situations for conditions that I am thinking about and that I always feel are logical.” Dana Schutz
