a| A touching photobook on one of the saddest pages in the second world war in Europe: the organised killing of tens of thousands of children and adults in hospitals and psychiatric institutions for the sake of saving money. This was labelled as Aktion T4 and the term “euthanasia” and “mercy killing” was used. The artist visited 16 of these sites in Austria and made in situ images of the grounds and buildings. He combined this with fascinating stills from propaganda movies promoting the idea of forced euthanasia and with two digital collages of responsibles. The result is a dark poetic view on Austria and Europe. At the same time the individual images come without explanation in order to manipulate - like propaganda - how the reader reads the image based on assocations he makes. Every image is true, but will often read in a wrong way. (from the webside of the artist)
