"...For many years now, Dorothy Iannone has
been investigating through her visual work, her books and her records,
the world of love and loving-styles. In her original (re)-search,
she skillfully blends imagery and text, beauty and truth. he is a
freedom fighter, and a forceful and dedicated artist. Her aim is
no less than human liberation." (Robert Filliou - 1975).
"...Majoli has traded the factureless
exactitude of oil paint for the runny swells of watercolor and gouache.
In her ongoing Rubbermen series, begun in 1999, Majoli loosely renders
men donning multilayered rubber fetish suits. These garments function
as a kind of second skin, a prosthesis that both envelops and redoubles
the countours of the bodies they contain, implying at once protection
and suffocation, restriction and pleasurable abandon. " (SH,
Whitney Biennale catalogue - 2006)
