CANDIDA HÖFER


Biblioteca Geral da Universidade de Coimbra IV, 2006
C-print
80.5 x 97.375 x 2.375 inches

The photographs of Candida Höfer capture the interiors of public and institutional spaces such as museums, zoos, archives and libraries devoid of human presence. Documenting the details of interior design, the intention of the space and the order and logic of the contents within, her images capture a universe of human knowledge.
