WALL OF DEATH. Motodrom.

Clemens Theobert Schedler

The Original Motodrom is a traveling wall of death, with shows that combine extreme sports with circus-like spectacle. The photographer Florian Holzherr has created a powerful memorial to their action-packed life. For several years, Holzherr accompanied the daredevil motorcyclists as they set up the wall of death, rode it, and dismantled it again as part of their lives on the road. The resulting black-and-white images reveal the craft, passion, and risks posed to these extraordinary performers.

    Clemens Theobert Schedler, Austria (1998)

    Born in Munich on April 15, 1962, grew up in Vorarlberg, has lived in Vienna since 1983.

    Enters the world of visual design at age 20: one year of art history in Salzburg, four years of commercial art in Vienna at the Höhere Graphische Bundes- Lehr- und Versuchsanstalt, three years freelance work for Walter Bohatsch and later for two other (at the time) fun ad agencies. Since 1990, free and freelance visual designer, concept advisor, and project developer.

    In my work, I simply
    try to bake good bread.

    Visual resonance spaces
    for looking, reading, and seeing:

    For me, power lies
    in the dignity of the plain,
    in the movement of the simple,
    and in solutions
    that lie close to home.

    Solution means when it is good for everyone.
