Book Launch: Inside the Carlton Hotel Johannesburg.

'Inside the Carlton Hotel Johannesburg' is about the once famous and prestigious South African Hotel, the five-star Carlton Hotel Johannesburg, which is located in the city's central business district and is bound to become a modern ruin since it has been closed in 1999.

Artists Yvonne Mueller and Leif Bennett managed to take photos inside the building and, together with graphic designer Sibylle Ryser and editor Dr. Fiona Siegenthaler, they have portrayed the entangled story of the site. You are cordially invited to the book launch of Inside the Carlton Hotel Johannesburg. Kadiatou Diallo will give a presentation and talk with the authors. Snacks and beverages will be provided and the book will be on sale.
