Monumentálne plátno School of Beauty, School of Culture mení obyčajný salón krásy na miesto, kde sa skladá identita, pamäť aj estetika. Marshall neukladá teóriu do viet, ale do farby, gest a pohľadov. Obraz funguje ako otvorené dvere do komunity, ktorá si krásu netlmočí z cudzieho jazyka, ale hovorí ňou od základu. Všetko je veľké, ale nič nie je preexponované.
