Gregor Schneider (1969)- Der Deutsche Beitrag Liebeslaube Venedig
Liebeslaube (love nest) was located in Haus u r. It is described as a "room within a room made of wood and block board, 1 window, 1 lamp, 1 bathtub, 1 bed, 1 heater, 1 kitchen cabinet, gray wood floor, walls and ceiling plastered white, 416 cm long, 285 cm wide, 315 cm high, Rheydt Germany, 1985-2001." If one had crawled into the house through a hole in a wall one could see: a bed and bathroom, a stove, a tea set, plates with an Italian language course. They could be the props of a story. But what story? And where is love in this hideaway? One question leads to the next. And soon the questions become existential: What is space? What is time ( https://www.deutschlandfunk.de/programm?drsearch:date=2020-08-30).
Color photographs A and B. 2001. Signed and numbered 47/60 on the reverse. Published by Parkett Verlag, Zurich. Size photos ca 17*23 cm, dimensions frame, with handmade passe-partouts by Schneider, ca 32*42 cm.
