FAZ Book
Text by René Schlott
Messmer reveals these continuities in German history, in which the “dream of the empire,” as the subtitle of the volume says, lives on, by giving space to the layers of time embedded in his photographic objects. And the title-giving term “deep rubble removal,” which refers to the removal of all foundations in the ground when houses are demolished, reflects this image-archaeological intention.
