Karen Knorr (1954-1954)
The passage
2007 | Lambda digital print on Fuji Crystal Archive paper | 122 × 152 cm
In this photograph of Villa Savoye’s clean interior, it appears that Karen Knorr has gone and done something wrong.
Designed by Le Corbusier in the 1920s, the modernist Villa Savoye is now run as a museum. Knorr is intrigued by the way it’s perfectly fine to look at paintings of birds and wildlife in museums, while the real thing would never be permitted inside. The birds here were digitally inserted into the photograph.
