Published by Mousse Publishing in conjunction with the eponymous exhibition at Pinacoteca Agnelli in Turin, this publication provides an essential reading of Walter Pfeiffer’s practice in the field of photography. Conceived as a photo book instead of a traditional exhibition catalogue, the publication includes an extensive image section, focused on juxtapositions of images based on visual associations rather than chronology. This editorial decision mirrors the longstanding practice of the artist in the field of bookmaking and honors Pfeiffer’s anti-hierarchical approach, which has been a guiding principle of the exhibition.
