Architekturfotografie II

96 pages, english

The title Architekturfotografie is intentionally misleading, as the Swiss artist Bianca Pedrina is never concerned with the monumental or the grand whole, but rather with seemingly insignificant details, traces, and fragments of urban spaces and their architectures.
The appearance of the publication is equally modest: designed as a paperback, it stands in contrast to traditional photography books. However, it is all the richer in content: it brings together photographs from Taipei, Seoul, Shanghai, Pisa, Andratx, Sofia, Leeds, Glasgow, St. Anton, Colmar, Zagreb, Brno, and Mödling—allowing them to blend into one another without commentary. Texts by Michiel Huijben run like a red thread through the book, reflecting on the concept of boundaries that shape our relationships, both to our surroundings and to each other.
