More about the book

You'll never see an airport the same way again: 22 photographic sequencesglimpsing fragments of movements through spaces of transit form themost amazing flip-book ever. Andrea Geyer and Katya Sander's artist's bookis a riveting photographic exprience that takes us through the so-called ''transitareas'' of international airports, where you're officially between states andnations, although still within them. The artists investigate these spaces in a flowof images, meanings and politics, overlaid and interwoven with 130 termsand 57 sentences collected in various airports. In a world where the notion ofborders has become both more rigid and more fluid than ever before, theartists spatialize the gap through a vocabulary of hallways, doors, lines andidentifications that lead to passages granted or denied.
