"Bocchino’s paintings reveal a connection in the imaginative energy of the imagery, which salutes the adventurous spirit of American creativity. Bocchino's recent works demonstrate an ongoing evolution that is exciting to witness. With nearly three decades of work already under her belt...her work has always more to discover.”
– Jonathan Goodman, Art Critic, Serena Bocchino: The Artist
"Serena Bocchino brings an ever-accelerating energy to this selection of abstract paintings and monotypes ...Improvisations like this, as every jazz musician knows, require a virtuosic blend of imaginativeness and discipline."
