Clemens Krauss
Sprechstunde (consultation hour)

Service is the product of consumption of our time. But in near future more of those services - particularly the medical ones - will become more exclusive.

In "Sprechstunde (consultation-hour)" the social service in the form of a medical talk with a medical doctor becomes a performative artistic piece of an exhibition.

"Sprechstunde (consultation-hour)" is an attempt to put a qualified service into the context of an art exhibition. The visitor turns into a patient and is able to consume a private medical talk with a qualified medical doctor for free.

"Sprechstunde (consultation hour)" is not "playing doctor" as it is not a medical treatment in juridical sense and in the sense of medical professional authorisation
