One of each

Meer over het boek

For thirty years Frankfurt-based artist Karsten Bott has been collecting everyday objects, especially objects other people throw away. Bott is interested in an “archaeological” inventory of objects people need, of how they use them and of how these objects are related to each other. For his book he photographed more than 2,000 objects. Organized according to lexical criteria, they constitute an encyclopedia of human life.
