"Seeing is everything in Oliver Jackson's work. All he asks of you is to look--and look carefully." — Robert L. Pincus

"Jackson walks away from a strictly Western approach to meaning (and the canon of contemporary art) and instead embraces a spectrum of cultural references that can vacillate from ancient and tribal art to a strict focus on materials and what they themselves mean. Jackson is not just in dialogue with his contemporaries, he is in dialogue with art history itself."
