Dust

“To look where nobody looks delivers mostly surprising results, but you need to have the creativity and genius to find beauty within the most mundane and even “dirty” things – to be precise in fluff and dust. But there’s not only beauty but also humour contained here (dust from fanstores of the rivaling soccer clubs in Vienna), fluff from a police station reveals a microcosmos of their “work”, and you even get trapped in examining and finding “something” in dirt from swinger clubs (to name just a few). Rough felt boards, flocked title, great printing makes an overall wonderful and more than unique book -there’s a lot of filth and dirt in the art-world, but Klaus manages to make art out of dirt…”
