Reading Susanne Kriemann English And German edition

Susanne Kriemann, winner of the 2010 GASAG Art Prize, layers time and space with historic objects and historical material found in archives, adding her own photos and interventions to create conceptual and photographic installations and artist books. She's built projects around a 1942 Hassleblad and photos taken by Agatha Christie; one project was inspired by the idea of a monstrously heavy building commissioned by the Third Reich. No wonder critics and theorists are drawn to her work. The nine authors collected in this anthology approach Kriemann's various manifestations and meanings, and link the themes of her work to the current discourse of art in general. Texts by Hans Dickel, Ovul Durmusglu, Matts Leiderstam & Susanne Kriemann, Vanessa Joan Muller, Lisa Puyplat, Dieter Roelstraete, Monika Szewczyk, Mirjam Varadinis, Axel John Wieder.
