Hans Hansen's Analog Project, which the artist has been engaged with since the 1990s, comprisesa more or less complete document of all the equipment, utensils, and materials that he hasneeded and accumulated over his many years as a photographer making analogue prints. Isthis collection an evidential record of a world-or rather a photographic practice-documentedbefore it disappears, perhaps for good? Does it address a time of upheaval, in which digital mediahave begun to dominate the world? Would we use the terminology of crisis and catastrophe todescribe this revolution, which is akin to the turmoil that photography once brought about? Andwhat kind of archive is being created in the process? (Reinhard Braun)Hans Hansen, b. 1940 in Bielefeld, completed a training as a lithographer before going on to studyapplied graphics at the Kunstakademie Dü sseldorf. In 1962 he became a freelance (self-taught)photographer. He has lived and worked in Hamburg since 1967.
