Swiss perspectives in 10 languages

Between life and death

Street photos from Romania, Ukraine and the Carpathian Mountains.

“Street Pictures”, a 2005 series of photographs by Swiss artist Roman Signer, shows small street stands and lovingly designed memorials for victims of traffic accidents which he encountered on extensive travels through eastern Europe.

The exhibition “Street Views and Super 8 Films” at the Aargau Kunsthaus provides an unusual perspective on the work of Signer, who has become internationally known primarily as a performance and conceptual artist. (Pictures: Aargau Kunsthaus, Aarau © Roman Signer)
