In Klause (Scheinprobleme in der Philosophie), Thomas Demand transforms a meticulously constructed paper model into a haunting photographic image. The work captures the delicate remains of a potted plant, evoking themes of decay, fragility, and the passage of time.
Presented as a digital pigment print with a screenprint bookplate, this edition reflects Demand’s conceptual engagement with reconstruction and perception. The piece accompanies a 2006 artist’s reprint by Thomas Demand of Rudolf Carnap: Scheinprobleme in der Philosophie, part of the Ex Libris series (originally published 1928).
