ROVERETO

One of the constant topics in the work of Andreas Duscha is provided by the examination of architecture and photography, which targets the spatial image as the result of a kind of architecture that during the construction of spaces appeals to a spatial imagination that exceeds the mere room. Hence, the built object becomes only the visible part of the imaginary. On the occasion of Manifesta 7, Andreas Duscha has confronted himself with inter-religious prayer rooms such as can be found worldwide in airports or hospitals, as rooms of seclusion or devotion. What appears in the documentation of these rooms is the – sometimes tragicomic – aesthetic of an attempt to bring cultural and religious differences together, and trying to develop a spatial image for it.
