HERR DER DINGE - Caroline Heinecke
Of all the motives that move people deep within themselves and make them act, there is hardly one that does not have its origin in collecting. By accumulating and presenting the most varied of things, people gain direction and live out not only their passion, but also their vanity and desire for power. In the carefully selected, brightly colored still lifes in her book "Herr der Dinge (Master of Things)", photographer Caroline Heinecke counters the trend towards collecting for profit or personal gain, to draw attention to collections of supposedly ordinary or useless objects.
The edition includes two cards, one of which is signed
