+ - 0 (plus minus null) is a facsimile of a unique, handmade artist's book crafted by German photographer Volker Heinze (born 1959) in 1986. Its photos are the result of the young Heinze's decision to capture the world around him--cityscapes, rooms cast in warm artificial light, friends or simply objects sitting on a table. Heinze employs color not as a tool of realism but with experimental flair, and plays with focus and the inevitable mistakes of analogue film. Heinze originally presented this body of work in two forms: as an installation in the influential 1986 exhibition Remnants of the Authentic at Museum Folkwang in Essen, and as + - 0, with its experimental layout, leaves of tracing paper with hand-painted quotes such as To search for reality is like diving for pearls in an aquarium and a booklet with excerpts from Martin Kippenberger's artist's book 241 Bildtitel zum Ausleihen. Edition of 750 copies.
