War Movie - 2008 - Stop Motion Animation + Fabric Sculpture
Bombs - 2008 - Fabric
Lauren Fatzinger's most recent series of works and installations are a playful poke at a world that has often forgotten how to laugh (or even smile for that matter) at themselves. From Fat Suits to Soft Bombs and Guns, her plushy pieces carry a solid commentary on things people don't often take lightly: in this case: war, weaponry & self consciousness. While these cuddly pieces could easily hang on display (and probably stay off the radar) at any FAO Schwartz, the questions they raise are hardly childish. She is a modern day Claes Oldenburg, who's work is equal parts fun and smarts. We're dying to see her response to our "Economic Crisis."
