Summary:

In his series featuring German Facades, French beach huts, and British seaside resorts, Götz Diergarten (*1972 in Mannheim) examines the outward appearance of different types of everyday buildings. Following in the footsteps of the Becher School, Diergarten’s works are conceptually rigorous, with a documentary-style straightforwardness. Diergarten’s originality, however, lies in the fact that he adds color as a dimension to this austere concept. In his METROpolis series, also presented in this book, he transforms the materials and patterns of passageways, tunnels, and railway platforms into abstract color spaces and fields. As in earlier series by Diergarten, the influences of American color photography by artists such as William Eggleston or Stephan Shore are obvious.
"Götz Diergarten (*1972 in Mannheim) untersucht in seinen typologischen Serien das Erscheinungsbild alltäglicher Architekturen: deutsche Fassaden, französische Strandkabinen und britische Bade-Architektur. Ganz in der Tradition der Becher-Schule besitzen seine Arbeiten eine konzeptuelle Strenge und dokumentarische Sachlichkeit."--Publisher's website.
