OFF-TIME Fotografische Positionen zur Freizeit und Eventkultur

"Off-time" is a term used to describe time not spent working. This is time that is shaped by peoples leisure behavior, thus forming a counterdraft to the working world with its organizational and civil-society demands. With works by Catherine Gfeller, Peter Granser, Martin Parr, Andrew Phelps, Janine Schrijver and Massimo Vitali, this publication shows how contemporary international photographers are exploring our "happiness"-seeking society and the resulting multiplication of "playful settings" as a cultural paradigm within the Western way of life. Music events, adventure parks, shopping centers and vacation spots are revealed to be projection surfaces for customs, rituals and dramatizations.
