OF ROOMS, PEOPLE AND FUNCTIONS: AN ARCHITECTURAL VIEW ON SOME FILMS OF JOSEF DABERNIG
by Claudia Siefen-Leitich
One of my favourite works by Austrian sculptor and filmmaker Josef Dabernig is his transcription of the health guide Beauty and Digestion: Human Rejuvenation Through the Appropriate Maintenance of the Intestines by the Austrian medical doctor Franz Xaver Mayr, originally published in 1920. The human body is to be distrusted, especially one’s own.
