findarticles.com - Lara Schnitger at Anton Kern by Eleanor Heartney
In an intriguing set of videos and photographs, this young Dutch artist explores the use of the human body as sculptural material. While similar territory was investigated by artists such as Bruce Nauman and Dennis Oppenheim 25 years ago, Schnitger gives her work a fresh spin.

In Lara Schnitger's hands the grotesque is not awful, but weirdly playful. This spirit continues in the "Face Fugues," a series of symmetrical photocollages in which multiple fingers make human faces into monsters.

Lara Schnitger’s work is characterized by an inventive use of textiles. She uses pieces of fabric to create both intimate sculptures and architectural installations. Her work, in which texts also play an important role, deals with eroticism, humour and politics.

Lara Schnitger seems to take a similarly obsessive pleasure in manipulating objects in her chosen sphere, the musty world of cheap textiles. Filling up the gallery, the artist installed a forest of awkward forms that jutted out in all directions and had to be carefully navigated, suggesting the abundance and eclecticism of a flea market.
thebrooklynrail.org - Lara Schnitger: Triple Candie / Anton Kern
Schnitger’s work is the subject of concurrent gallery shows at Triple Candie and at Anton Kern Gallery; her eccentric, erotic sculptures are the main event in each. Her sculptural m.o. is to wrap a network of wooden planks in fabric, sometimes bearing color-coded associations—pantyhose brown, pink and to accessorize with lace, tassels, “wads” of cotton, and fake hair (bush?).

Lara Schnitger is showing large-scale sculptures at Anton Kern Gallery that expand her exploration of the boundaries between craft and high art. Using a variety of materials, including wood, fabric, and faux fur, Schnitger’s three-dimensional collages reference domestic architecture, fashion, and labor.
