Description

A fantastic body of work depicting the life-cycle as seen through the corridors, operating rooms and waiting areas of a hospital. From the publisher: "Known for his alpine landscapes, Walter Niedermayr here turns to a different subject: hospital interiors. Starting in the main lobby and moving throughout the entire institution, via waiting rooms, operating chambers, nursery wards, and the morgue, Niedermayr's uncannily intimate images act as a silent guide through a familiar space."
