Heimsuchung : Unsichere Räume in der Kunst der Gegenwart. Uncanny Spaces in Contemporary Art (Paperback)

One’s own home is usually considered to be an inviolable, reassuring place. Expressions such as “there’s no place like home” reveal the positive thoughts and the sense of well-being associated with one’s dwelling. But what happens when an external threat is transferred into the subject’s interior? In the present catalog, which features photography, installation, sculpture, and video art, 21 artists who work on a global scale take a stand on this unsettling subject, including Gregory Crewdson, Thomas Demand, and Hans Op de Beeck.
