The artist Ulrich Strothjohann has produced an object series entitled Spielautomat/Reenactment for Edition Hatje Cantz. This multiple is an interpretation of the front of a slot machine game that appears in a photograph from his Mapping Holes series. Deposited as refuse on the curb in the photograph, the worn-out object is transformed by the artist into a three-dimensional wooden wall and art object. Strothjohann recreates the cut-outs and holes seen in the original picture directly by hand on a varnished, wood panel. The hand-painted lettering of each unique object spells out names such as “MAGIC BOOSTER,” “TURBO SUNNY,” “GHOST SLIDER” and “ MYSTIK MIRROR,” and cite actual names of the slot games that had existed at one time. Each is housed in a galvanized metal storage box handmade by the artist.
