About the Item

Across (Strange Love), 2006 - 126x125cm Edition of 5. Analog C-Print printed on Fuji Archive Paper, hand-printed by the artist, based on a Polaroid. Signature label and certificate. Artist Inventory #6130A. Not mounted, “I never remember the details of a Stefanie Schneider image, just the whole. She treads a third path between reality and dream that connects the two and truly sparks my artistic, visual freedom.” (Marc Forster) This piece is part of Stefanie Schneider's Strange Love, a poignant substory within her 29 Palms, CA project. It delves into the lingering shadows of love—lost, unrequited, and impossible to forget. Love’s absence often leaves an indelible mark, much like the sensation of a ghost limb felt by an amputee—an ache with no real presence, yet profoundly felt. This work explores the nuances of memory, imagination, and the fleeting nature of human connection, capturing love as it was experienced by both the artist and her lover, as he saw himself and as he was perceived by others. Strange Love is built around the complexities of a ménage à trois, intertwining real-time experiences with reflections on love, sexuality, communication, and perception. The narrative weaves in and out of reality, offering an ever-evolving reinterpretation that stands independently, yet remains rooted in the present. The project parallels the 29 Palms, CA series, where fragments of memories, emotions, and visions collide, creating a multi-layered dialogue between past and present. The works, which include photographs, films, paintings, and text, form a collection of transient yet fixed moments—documents of a life lived and loved, where absence amplifies presence. The absence of someone can make their memory even more resonant, as it lingers, ever-present in the spaces they once filled.

Analog C-Print, hand-printed by the artist on Fuji Crystal Archive Paper, based on the Polaroid. Signature label and certificate. Artist Inventory Number 5492. Not mounted. ------------------------------------------------ Stefanie Schneider: A German view of the American West The works of Stefanie Schneider evoke Ed Ruscha's obsession with the American experience, the richness of Georgia O'Keefe's deserts and the loneliness of Edward Hopper's haunting paintings. So how exactly did this German photographer become one of the most important artists of the American narrative of the 20th and 21st century? Schneider's ability to control, or at least predict, the outcome of a pack of Polaroid film is a testament to her experience and intuitive understanding of the medium. With years of practice and countless rolls of film, she has honed her skills, shooting from the hip and grounding her decisions in her gut instincts. It's a symbiotic dance, where she juggles the film, the actors, and the set simultaneously. Every aspect of a Stefanie Schneider photo...
