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.
