On Kawara

" ... Photographer Candida Höfer travelled through Asia, America and Europe between 2004 and 2007 to take pictures of On Kawaras Date Paintings in the spaces of private collectors. On Kawara created his famous Date Paintings from 1960 on. On her trip following the trace of these pictures, Candida Höfer performed photographic "field research". The collectors are never depicted, yet they are objectively portrayed all the same through the situations in which they live." --publisher.
