About Doppelgänger

The city is full of symbols – buildings and monuments that confidently remind us who we are, what our history is and whom we should honour. But these objects are not as stable as they seem. Esper Postma breathes life into the dormant side of their identity, the qualities they would rather keep from view. His installations fragment and collage objects to bring forth their doubts and unease. A Prussian eagle has a moment of introspection; a street sign reveals its many past names. Postma’s works show that every building, monument and artefact has a doppelgänger – an inner alter ego that is vying for attention.

The first volume documents Postma’s exhibitions; the second presents research material. Flip through the books simultaneously to find visual connections between work and research.
