"Anne Schmidt’s protean œuvre culminates in her thesis installation Strahlte. Geschöpf. Champagner. zottig. Klumpen [Radiated. Creature. Champagne. ragged. Lump], which stars giant ice-cream-cone sculptures, a chainsawed “procrastination pig,” the autofictional novel Me after Two Anal Orgasms, and tennis balls as well as the artist herself. Schmidt’s precise and vigorous engagement with normative images of desire in capitalist consumer society and probing creative scrutiny of institutional logics reflects her background as both an activist and a scholar of culture."
