«Wann? Ph.R.» (When?)
Christian Ratti and Philipp Rieger
Christian Ratti
* 1974 in Chur, lives and works in Zurich
Following the lead of strollology Christian Ratti explores in guided tours houses and neighborhoods, with a predilection for rather digressive things, phenomena and relations to which little attention is usually paid. The situation at hand may be complemented by (mostly minimal) interventions. Besides well-founded research and long-term projects in the realm of protection of nature (elimination of traps for small animals in settlement areas) and industrial culture (guided tours in a nail factory) the artist (the author of these lines) has a variety of collections.
