In Waitin' Around to Die, Christoph Dettmeier uses photography, collage, sculpture and video backdrop to explore the theme of the Wild West narrative transplanted into contemporary industrial wastelands. His work portrays ghost-town aesthetics in urban settings such as Detroit, Berlin or abandoned manufacturing sites, blending frontier mythology with modern ruin. The volume includes visual essays and commentary by Oliver Zybok.
