"Alice Zinnes’s ‘Magic Dream,’ with its flare of yellow set against a forest-green ground, earns its pride of place over the room’s marble fireplace.

"…before reaching the innocent fragile pictorial universe Zinnes now inhabits, she had to pass many tests of courage, and ward off the traumatic doubts and fears that continually plagued the artist’s life…She would spend days on end copying the master’s etchings, freely translating them in her own idiom, yet preserving his (Cezanne) ‘control of light and dark,’ and ‘the identities he’s able to create.’ …This is where Zinnes stands today; Immersed in myths, in magic fables, she has elaborated a personal style that combines a ‘sense of exploration and inevitable fear.’
-Antony Hudek, The Dartmouth
