Description

Roger Eberhard's Standard presents a unique perspective on our global world. By photographing the interior and exterior of 32 Hilton hotels in 32 cities across five continents, Eberhard reveals the surprising similarities between these establishments. The standardisation of hotel interiors, designed by Hilton, creates a sense of uniformity, yet each room retains subtle local touches that reflect its surroundings. This juxtaposition highlights the intriguing parallels and divergences between urban landscapes worldwide. Eberhard's photographs are accompanied by essays from Benedict Wells, Franziska Solte, and Nadine Wietlisbach, offering insights into the monotony of anonymous hotels, the evolution of modern interior design, and the artist's own work.
