Hans-Arp-Allee<br />

Oliver Kornhoff et al<br />

The Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung recently devoted a<br />

whole page to Florian Slotawa’s Hotelarbeiten from 1999;<br />

black and white installation photographs in which the<br />

artist photographed hotel furniture which he had placed<br />

against a wall: One minute a bed, then suddenly a cave.<br />

One minute furniture, now it’s art. Florian Slotawa had<br />

already initiated a series of studio photographs in 2009<br />

in which he brought together a total of thirty-two motifs.<br />

The series is now presented for the first time in its entirety<br />

in this lavishly produced book, which rigidly adheres to<br />

the artist’s overall design. Florian Slotawa’s photographs<br />

emphasise an absence of things in their strictly<br />

documentary delivery and thus enhance the objectness of<br />

the building, as well as the details with doorplate, electric<br />

socket or pipe work to become sculptural elements.
