Further information:
TOD translates DEATH.
"With 19 X-ray pictures of the human body from head to foot and literary texts on the topic of death by Bettina von Arnim, Georg Büchner, Gottfried Keller, Manuel Mujica Láinez, Horst Stern, Josef Winkler and the Heidelberg Death dance." (p. 218)
"To the beholder, the large, double-spread pictures at first seem like abstract images with a high formal aesthetic appeal, yet how completely different the hand with its long fingers, what is more, tapering into dark finger nails, snatching into the dark like a huge claw." (p. 116) (from the catalogue)
