The publication concludes Julia Gaisbacher‘s long-time exploration of Hanne Darboven‘s Künstlerinnenhaus and at the same time continues her own work on “dream houses.” The Viennese artist‘s photographs provide sensitive insights into Hanne Darboven‘s studios in the south of Hamburg. The five houses on the unique estate served as Darboven‘s living and working space for 40 years. To this day, the ensemble also functions as a treasury for thousands of objects and artworks. Gaisbacher‘s precisely composed black-and-white photographs of the rooms, whose seemingly chaotic abundance contrasts sharply with the strict order of Darboven‘s works on paper, create a compelling artistic dialog about time and space between the generations.
