A melancholy journey to the enchanted cemeteries of Europe: from the grand statuary of Italy's burial grounds and the romantic grounds of Germany to the mysterious graves of Prague. Every place breathes the spell of transience, and many tell stories through their overgrown graves, weathered inscriptions and proud mausoleums. A homage to the cemetery culture of the Western world.
240 pages, around 180 illustrations, with texts by Björn Eenboom. Published in September 2022 by Frederking & Thaler. The project has its own website, orte-der-erinnerung.com.
Signed copies, with a dedication on request, directly from the artist.
