Squared photos - Ottmar Hörl goes Instagram
Ottmar Hörl's installations function as incentives, they stimulate debates, and they're gone shortly after. This is part of Hörl's concept as an artist. For all those who have missed these temporary art events, they will continue to have their effect as photo documentations on Instagram.

Running until 23 October: Say it with flowers!, Schloss Moyland
