Photographer Ulrich Wüst's "Hausbuch" (House Book) is the product of more than two decades of work. A leporello, or artist book folded like an accordion, the piece spans a full gallery wall!
Installing "Hausbuch" in our new exhibition "Made in Germany? Art and Identity in a Global Nation" required collaboration between staff including conservator of photographs Tatiana Cole, senior conservation technician Adam Baker, curators Lynette Roth and Peter Murphy, exhibition designer Madelyn Albright, and exhibition production specialists Cheyanne Stunger and Ben Peters. Blink and you'll miss them!
See Wüst's "Hausbuch" in "Made in Germany," on view September 13 through January 5. https://harvardartmuseums.org/madeing...
