‘I was not impressed by Brown’s work at the time and gave a negative review to the Gagosian show. Back then her paint textures, often embedded with embracing figures in flagrante delicto, or thereabouts, struck me as pointlessly messy, gratuitously provocative, amateurish in their mixes of abstraction and representation‘ Roberta Smith, co-chief art critic, New York Times.
