"The artist and historian Arno Gisinger takes hold of landscape, evidence, and the object, and turns them into subjects of analysis and privileged reference. These everyday topics serve an investigation, which uses the graveness or seeming insignificance of an event to sound out and open up its operation toward the detection and dogged tracking of the trace – the vanished-vanishing trace of people and things."
