Canadian Centre for Architecture Exhibition Photos: "Dieter Appelt : La catastrophe des choses/ The catastrophe of things"

Images in the exhbition featured the attic of the Künstlerhaus Bethanien in Berlin.

Photographs of images in the exhibition: No. 3, 5 and 14 from the sequence Bethanien, 1984-91.
