Bibliothek der Ungelesenen Bücher
Julius Deutschbauer, Bibliothek ungelesener Bücher, courtesy EBENSPERGER, © Ferdinand Neumüller.
Since 1997, Julius Deutschbauer has been collecting books that people own but have never read—along with their personal reasons why. This growing archive, The Library of Unread Books, offers a humorous yet critical reflection on our reading habits, intellectual aspirations, and cultural pretensions.The exhibition invites visitors to browse the collection and consider the question: Why do we own books we never read? A performative activation accompanies the display, with Deutschbauer interviewing guests about their unread books.
