5 × 21.5 cm / in collaboration with Dan Gunn, Berlin Brittle Land encompasses black and white sequences of stills from Navratil's works Resurrections (2014) and Silbersee (2015), enriched with essays by Paul Feigelfeld and Keston Sutherland, and a poem by Rachel O'Reilly. Taking the former Agfa-Orwo filmfactory in Wolfen-Bitterfeld as a point of departure, the book divulges the interdependent histories of photographic emulsion, gelatin, labour, explotation, exhaustion, chemical contamination, fragility and slow violence. Design: Roger Willems.
