This book presents an overview of the work of Swiss photographer Hans Danuser (born 1953) over the last 35 years and places it in wider artistic and social contexts. The breakup of power blocs and the rise of globalization are among the topics of Danuser’s often large-format and site-specific works.
Hans Danuser was a Swiss artist and photographer. His first major work, the cycle In Vivo, brought him international fame, therein he broke several societal taboos with respect to genetic research and nuclear physics. Since the 1990s, in addition to his photographic studies, Danuser has focused increasingly on transdisciplinary (research) projects in the arts and sciences.
