Christoph Dettmeier: Waitin' Around to Die

Text by Oliver Zybok.
Published by Hatje Cantz

Christoph Dettmeier (born 1966) can find a Wild West prairie in Detroit, Berlin or anywhere that an industrial wasteland can stand in for a ghost town. In photographs, collages, sculptures and video backdrops for his performance “Die Stunde des Cowboys” (“The Cowboy Hour”), the artist's depictions of these non-locations make them look surrealistic and picturesque, and his “country karaoke shows” further heighten this effect.
