Read a Parkett text on Maria Lassnig
Parkett Vol. 85
Quote from Parkett
“In short, Lassnig has not settled down; she has geared up. The only tip-off that these were the fantasies of an old woman comes when she herself is the center of the action, as she is in several pictures with unsparing attention to her own nudity. But woe to the spectators who look down the barrel of the gun she points out at them in one such picture, thinking that she won’t shoot.”
Robert Storr, Parkett No. 85, 2009
Additional Quote
“Representative of Maria Lassnig’s interest in abstracting distinct objects, the six-color silkscreen print A Pair of Gloves features two yellow gloves perched atop a set of loosely figurative human hands.” -Artspace
