Catrin Huber (*1968) works with
architectural, fictional and imagined spaces as well as with
site-responsive practices. Fascinated by ancient Roman wall painting,
she developed site-specific installations in a topical dialogue with two
Roman houses at the world-heritage sites of Herculaneum and Pompeii.
This intricately designed book presents Huber's versatile spatial
interventions, discusses the complex relation between her installations
and their respective archaeological settings (local/temporal), and
re-evaluates the daring concept of a historiographic turn within the
arts.
