Fleischerei

Fleischerei — German for ‘butcher shop’ — sends you on a walk through the rooms of a former butcher in Vienna’s Ottakring neighborhood (formerly a working-class district, but now more a neighborhood of immigrants from around the world). The photographs show intimate visual details of objects left behind in the vacated retail store, the “Wurschtzimmer” (the room where sausages were made), and the apartment of the owners. This old family business was replaced by modern ways of shopping and cultural transformations.
