On the occasion of the exhibition 'Waitin' Around to Die', this publication presents a detailed exploration of the performance, video, and photographic works of Christoph Dettmeier (b. in Cologne, 1966). Dettmeier's photographs frequently depict unpopulated landscapes, including indutrial areas in Detroit, Berlin, and the Ruhr region of Germany. His videos and performances paired with slide projections display a closeness to the cinematic genre of the American Western; as a result, the landscapes these works depict are imbued with an additional emotional charge by filmic images in the mind's eye of the the beholder.-- Publisher.
