Hist. crit. notes:The “Platzhalter” {placeholder} is part of a group of objects by Sonia Leimer. It is a synonym for the simultaneity of various time-dependent situations: as well as implying a space in the here and now, it refers to something future or in being. What is fascinating about placeholders is that they create an imaginary space that goes far beyond the borders of the object itself, illustrating how a minimal spatial presence can construct a large surface area.
