"Sara VanDerBeek is every historicist's dream: an artist whose biography and practice seem so symmetrical that it's tempting to skip all of the written arguments and simply draw a diagram... Most obvious is the curatorial quality of her work: each assemblage is like an exhibition space, the pictures that adorn it are like objects carefully selected for the show, and the photographs themselves serv as a monograph of what once was." – Excerpt from "Sara VanDerBeek: Biography, autonomy, portals and portholes; photographs, assemblages and scuptures," Graham T. Beck,
