2015, Clages Gallery, Cologne, Germany 2016, Carico Massimo, Livorno, Italy 2017, Kunstraum München, Munich, Germany 2018, Terzopiano, Lucca, Italy a) Clages Gallery, Cologne, Germany, 2015: In 2015 Daniel Maier-Reimer asked the artist Luca Vitone to give shape to the journey "Great Wall, China 2001" at an exhibition at Galerie Clages in Cologne. Luca Vitone reproduced the only existing photo of the journey as poster in unlimited edition for wallpapering walls and rooms. The reproduction, an offset print on Affichen paper, 32 x 48 cm, stands in true scale 1:1 to the photo, but it is full of blurriness and colour shifts. Luca Vitone had the entrance and main room of the gallery wallpapered all around without adding another object. He left the middle room of the gallery space sequence completely empty. In the gallery's last and rear exhibition room he showed Daniel Maier-Reimer's photograph of the journey as a separate spatial installation, framed solitarily and conventionally under glass in white glazed wood and hung it at the usual eye level on one of the white walls, adding nothing else here either. T.K. Rough reproduction of Daniel Maier-Reimer's photo of the journey "Great Wall, China 2001" as offset print on Affichen paper, 32 x 48 cm, 1:1. Left: The empty middle room of the gallery. Right: The back room of the gallery with Luca Vitone's second presentation: Daniel Maier-Reimer's photo of the journey "Great Wall, China 2001", framed. In the last and rear exhibition room of the gallery Luca Vitone showed Daniel Maier-Reimer's photo of the journey "Great Wall, China 2001" as a separate, solitary installation.
