Hotel art

Hotel hallways are long by necessity and not meant to be places to spend time in. Looking out from the lift door all you normally see are the signs with the room numbers on them. Often barely legible and hardly ever designed in the typographic sense. The Sheraton in Bozen, resp. Bolzano, seems to have thought about this situation and came up with this still-life. Many small LEDs remind us of the bright lights used by hotels near railways stations in order to attract passing travellers. Not exactly literature, but more than the usual thoughtlessness extended to temporarily homeless guests.
