About the Item

STRANGER THAN PARADISE – Monograph Signed by the artist Stefanie Schneider Hardcover 200 pages Hatje Cantz Verlag, 2006 ISBN 3-7757-1751-X With essays by: • Mark Gisbourne – Life’s a Dream • Marc Forster – Life Inside Pieces of Graffiti • Eugen Blume – A Discovery on Polaroid Step into a sun-drenched dream where love lingers like heat on the highway. This monograph is the first full embrace of Stefanie Schneider’s cinematic world—over 320 Polaroids bathed in the faded light of the California desert. Shot on expired film, each image is steeped in longing, chance, and the beautiful fragility of imperfection. Here, lovers kiss in nameless motel rooms, wander under desert skies, and disappear into the haze of memory. There’s no script—just the poetry of moments lived and lost, again and again. Time bends, colors bleed, and emotions smolder just beneath the surface. It’s a visual love letter to freedom, to loneliness, to the kind of romance that hurts in the best way. A world where even heartbreak is drenched in golden light.
