...exhibit at the Howard Yezerski Gallery, Gary Schneider is trying to find out. A striking series of seven small and four large toned silver gelatin photographic prints reveals the contours of children’s hands and mouths in all their complexity. The symmetric, proportioned limbs and lips of traditional painting give way to ethereal, x-ray-like forms, each as unique as the fingerprints they highlight. These works build on Schneider’s previous experiences at the intersection of science and art, in which he produced extremely detailed portraits of parts of his own body, including a hair...
...Schneider, while using sophisticated methods of printmaking, never loses sight of the glowing humanity at the core of each image. Unlike their close cousin the x-ray, these photographs never violate the boundary between body and environment. The hands and lips are brilliant in their complexity, but never try to be more than a very sophisticated surface, never penetrating to bone and sinew. For Schneider, science illuminates the body’s form, without ever violating its sanctity. That constant sense of reverence is what makes his work art, rather than a photocopier joke gone horribly awry...
...vision of science that informs these photographs is, paradoxically, not scientific at all. Traditional science in the form of medicine seeks to classify, parametrize and regularize the body—with the aim of predicting and controlling function. Schneider works with a greater degree of freedom, in much the same way that chaos theory has opened up complex new vistas in hard science. Schneider shows how abstract art can be natural, since it can be generated simply by looking at parts of the body in a completely new way. Ironically, since science uses “handedness?...
Coach Lee Quesnelle returns nearly all of his defensive corps, including senior David Schneider (8-6-14), an honorable mention all-Ivy selection last year, and sophomore Matthew Maglione, a June draft pick of the Washington Capitals...
...climate may be increasing conviction rates. But lawyers nationwide are exchanging stories. In Houston a week after the attacks, a Mexican defendant convicted of delivering 40 lbs. of heroin was sentenced to 61 years, not the 30 he was expecting. "Everyone was shocked," says his lawyer, Stanley Schneider, who blames Sept. 11 backlash. Doug Allen, a Claremont, Calif., attorney, says he recently had his client--accused of trespassing in a restricted area and then trying to run down a security guard--plea-bargain. Before the attack, he would have gone to trial. "You're really in trouble with those facts...
