Summary

"Much in the way Richard Prince began to re-photograph advertisements in the 1970s, German artist Peter Piller more recently started to collect an archive of images while employed at an ad agency. The numbing task of endlessly scanning publications suddenly became engaging when he started to clip and organize images into categories such as ""Policemen Searching,"" ""Vandalism"" and ""Projection Areas."" For this volume, Piller selected photographs from Switzerland's Baloise Insurance, Baloise Group image archive--half a million digital images taken by appraisers on accident sites between 2001 and 2005. A wry and insightful look at everyday catastrophe, this volume is part of the series of artists' projects edited by artist and writer, Christoph Keller. Born in 1968, Peter Piller lives and works in Hamburg, Germany. His work has recently been shown at New York's Andrew Kreps Gallery and at the Museum of Contemporary Photography in Chicago."
