Following the footsteps of Ed Ruscha

The publication cites Ed Ruscha's iconic artist's book TWENTYSIX GASOLINE STATIONS from 1963, and thus spans an arc from the automobile culture of the American Sixties to our own European present, questioning the direction in which we wish to shape this development.

A hairdresser, an Asian market, signs upon signs, curtains, and--behind these--apartments. At first glance, a street like any other, but something irritates. Finally, you realize that the images depict only vacancies. The buildings on Waldeggstrasse have been unoccupied for ten years, and it will be almost another ten years before the "gap" is closed to form an inner-city expressway axis. The images by the Austrian photo artist Otto Hainzl link the dramaturgy of social life with questions about urban development concepts.

Otto Hainzl is an Austrian photographer. Based in Linz, he has been working all over Europe.
Otto Hainzl observes. What kind of society we are, who WE are as a society to begin with. What approaches WE take to life. His scenes, largely in color, embody everyday situations that always feature multiple layers but delve unexpectedly deep, to a level where the statements they make claim their space.
