In the Fall 2011 issue of X-TRA, Mike Minelli reviews the exhibition Mira Schor: Paintings From The Nineties To Now at CB1 Gallery.
Minelli writes: "For Schor, the surface of her paintings is a skin. Or to borrow a Lacanian phrase, a 'stadium' upon which subjectivity comes to be written by an ever-shifting series of conscious and unconscious events. And it is upon this public surface/space/body where pre-linguistic meaning in other words, affect meets the signifier head on."
