"Giordano uses metal, handmade
paper and encaustic wax to create surfaces
and forms that evoke the passage of time."
--The New York Times, Sunday March
14, 1999
"Joan Giordano's work has a carefully
calibrated disparity of mediums and forms-papery,
steely and obdurate-that is seldom seen
together. A sculptor and painter who came
to her current work from papermaking,
Giordano pairs sheets of metal with handmade
paper combining them in ways that stretch
their affinities in strength , flexibility
and texture."
--Nancy Princenthal
