About the Item

Untitled (Cathy and Shannon) - 2004 20x20cm, Edition of 10, plus 2 Artist Proofs. Archival C-Print, based on a Polaroid. Certificate and Signature label. Artist Inventory No. 20294. Not mounted. Life’s a Dream (The Personal World of Stefanie Schneider) By Mark Gisbourne Stefanie Schneider’s art is an apparition—an image caught between reality and dream, chance and intention. Using expired Polaroid film, she embraces the unpredictable, allowing time, chemistry, and circumstance to shape her narratives. In her world, moments are exposed twice—once by the camera, again by memory—each frame a ghost of what was or could have been. Her images unfold in the hazy landscapes of the American Southwest—motels, highways, gas stations—familiar scenes emptied of certainty, infused with longing. Like echoes of forgotten films, they evoke the alienation of modern life, stripping Hollywood myths down to raw emotion. Chance guides her work, but it’s not random. It’s the existential kind—lived, felt, inevitable. Her characters, whether actresses, friends, or herself, drift through stories without resolution, embodying a world in flux. There’s no beginning or end, only fragments of love, solitude, and fleeting beauty. Schneider’s work is cinematic yet refuses a script. It recalls Lynch’s dreamlike tension, Jarmusch’s quiet detachment, yet remains uniquely her own. She captures the ridiculous sublime—where nostalgia meets absurdity, where the American Dream dissolves into a mirage. Her art does not impose meaning; it invites it. Each faded Polaroid is a whisper, a question, an unfinished sentence. A dream glimpsed before waking.

Untitled, MT Inv. No 10-1-167 – Miroslav Tichy, Woman, Czech, Photography
By Miroslav Tichy
Located in Zurich, CH
Miroslav Tichý (*1926, Czech Republic) Untitled, MT Inv. No 10-1-167 Unknown, ca. 1970-1990 Silver Gelatin Print Sheet 17,7 x 17,8 cm (7 x 7 in.) Unique Print only Tichý, practically reinventing photography from scratch, reconstitutes pictorialism along with it, and not as a distortion of the medium but as something like its essence. What counts for him is not only the image - just one moment in the photographic process - but also the chemical activity of the materials, which is never entirely stable or complete, and the delimitation of the results via cropping and framing. Marginal and exceptionally voyeuristic, in his methods Tichý could be described as an “art brut photographer” yet he is also marked by classical influences. Though his images are produced with poor-quality equipment and carelessly shot, they offer an idiosyncratic and almost hallucinatory vision of a fantastical, eroticised reality. With his endless return to the same subject and the volume and regularity of his production, Tichý’s work draws many parallels to certain practices of conceptual art during the same period. – Art, Black and White...
