Cindy Sherman

''The National Portrait Gallerys Cindy Sherman exhibition showcases her witty, inventive and unexpectedly moving twists on female stereotypes.'' - Waldemar Januszczak, The Sunday Times ''From Manhattan dowager to gawky boy and everyone in between, Sherman gives a one-woman masterclass in the art of keeping up appearances.' ' - Laura Cumming, The Guardian 'Only rarely do artistic retrospectives feel as useful and perfectly judged as this. ' - Waldemar Januszczak, The Sunday Times ''It's a wonderful show, which gives us a chance to get to grips with one of the most influential contemporary artists working today.'' - The Week 'Cindy Sherman was the selfie pioneer we could learn a lot from her originality. ' - Janet Street-Porter, The Independent ''Its a testament to [Sherman's] brilliance that you leave this highly entertaining exhibition still guessing about whether youve learnt everything or nothing about this remarkable artist.'' - Mark Hudson, The Daily Telegraph
