| Publisher Description: We present here a typological survey and classification in the style of the (Bernd and Hilla) Becher and documenting the situations encountered during the search process, in the manner of (Marcel) Duchamp or (Joseph) Beuys. However, far from the typological survey procedures of the Dusserdorf School, the phenomenological sampling of the city of Buenos Aires presented here is much more linked to the procedure of situationist drift, according to the technique described (Guy) Debord in his 'Theory of drift', consisting of traveling urban spaces away from the classic notions of the ride and abandoning the search for the recognition of psychogeographic effects. |
Contributor Bio(s): Spehr, Daniel: - Daniel and Kathrin are a couple of photographers living in Basel who can not resist living under the dictates of a thermometer that, with the accuracy of a Swiss watch, indicates a temperature below zero, days of fur boots and hats. That is why every year they escape from the mandates of winter and seek new territories that tempt them with their exotic warmth. This is how they have photographed Bangkok, Sri Lanka, Buenos Aires ... their temporary shelters.Schultess, Kathrin: - Daniel and Kathrin are a couple of photographers living in Basel who can not resist living under the dictates of a thermometer that, with the accuracy of a Swiss watch, indicates a temperature below zero, days of fur boots and hats.
