"Holly Alderman's art combines serious purpose, wit and whimsey in an engaging alchemy. In the multilayered images of her Cyber Heroes project for the National Academy she makes past and present speak to each other in a lively dialogue. Icons of New York's Gilded Age mingle with references to the city of today, while figures formed of dotted lights march in front, as if into the future. The effect is visually stunning and thought-provoking." -- Diana Wolfe Larkin, Ph.D., Art historian and poet
