  • chance & change processes & situations, morocco 1973, features four Photos bearing the title '28.3.73. ourika. 30 seconds intervals'. there then follows a series of three Photos labeled '11.4.1973 sidi moussa d'aglou. between the waves'. it depicts close-ups of pebbles on a beach, the second picture showing them partially covered by the foam from a wave. six further Photos of waves form a third set marked '11.4. 1973. sidi moussa d'aglou. 10 seconds intervals'. the work ends with a diptych '14.4.73. el douar mirleh. at random times 14,56h & 16,32h' in which two Photos are shown of a street in douar, taken from the same angle and identical except for longer shadows in the second. in a similar vein, fleeting and ephemeral images can be seen in - niggenkopf-serie- [14. -niggenkopf -serie-, bern, artists' press, 1975 cf. catalogue raisonné n° 28.] in which eight Photos document the dispersal of a cloud. these are all records of things occurring; a cloud moving through the sky, liquid movements in a stream, currents in air and water.
