Paintings, 2015

Anrandungen,
Photo Project

„Anrandungen“ (literally translated as “ on the verge of …“) – a photographic project traveling along the European Union’s new Eastern border from Estonia to Romania.

A journey from the north to the south along the periphery of our great political and cultural project: the European Union, led Marco Kaufmann from Estonia through Latvia, Lithuania, eastern Poland, Slovakia and Hungary to the eastern border regions of Romania. Such a trip, taking over 8 weeks by car, allowed the artist to accumulate a wealth of material from observations and encounters along the way. A selection of them can be seen in this photo book.
