1958 auf der Werkkunstschule in Offenbach entwickelte Franz Erhard Walther eine eigene Typographie, die ohne Diagonalen auskommt.

Illustrated with images from Jan Tschichold's little-known private collection of design ephemera, this important book explores a legendary figure in the history of modern graphic design through the artists, ideas, and texts from the Bauhaus that most influenced him.

OPTIONS offers a non-linear reading of the events that led to the annexation of South Tyrol to Italy at the end of WWI. When the area between the present-day Austrian and Trentino boundaries officially became an Italian province in 1919, a choice was given to the local communities: they could either stay, naturalise as Italians and side with the Fascists, or they could emigrate to the Third Reich and leave behind their culture and possessions.

46 Seiten im Heft mit Schutzumschlag, 3 Textbeileger, 4Blatt Aufkleber mit Arbeiten des Künstlers, zahlreiche Abb. in Farbe, Broschur, 22 x 15 cm - Ob barocke Madonnen, Satellitenaufnahmen von Google Earth, Pistolen oder Ereignisse der Weltgeschichte in Nussschalengröße: Der Künstler Peter Sauerer (*1958) nimmt sich all jene Dinge vor, denen es gelingt seine Aufmerksamkeit zu binden. Sorgsam schnitzt er sie im Miniaturformat liebevoll nach, bemalt und zerlegt sie sodann, um sie im letzten Schritt der Bearbeitung mit Schnüren wieder zusammen zu fügen. Seine Kleinplastiken vereinen Konstruktion und Dekonstruktion, balancieren zwischen Aufbau und Zerstörung, markieren einen Zustand der Wandlung.

For the first time, this publication brings together the Mosaic works by the British artist Stephen Willats, which were created in Great Britain and Finland in the 1990s. In these works, Willats uses the medium of the book to enter into an exchange with people and to create a space in neighborhoods, museums, and bookstores where social bonds can be established. It is a collaborative process through which Willats redefines the web of relationships between artist, artwork, audience and society; a process of instituting in which the artwork becomes its own institution.

With contributions by Jamie Allen, Bernhard Garnicnig, Elsa Himmer, Lucie Kolb and Stephen Willats.

Whether you have already tried your hand at bookbinding or are a complete beginner, Rachel's knowledge and passion will inspire you to explore the many possibilities of bookart.

This is not a catalogue raisonné. Nor is it a family album. If anything, it is an album dé-raisonné, the collage of a life commented on discreetly by its author. It is a reproduction of the world of Olga Mohler-Picabia around a mentor and a great love, Francis Picabia. A variation on the theme of Pygmalion, this album is the highly personal expression of a quarter century of learning. An intaglio portrait of Picabia through the eyes of Olga, a portrait that is at once funny, intimate, sensible and often very moving.

Zum 100. Geburtstag von Inge Morath in diesem Jahr erscheint in der FOTOHOF>EDITION ein Doppelband von zwei selten gezeigten Fotoserien. Beide Bücher nehmen sich Themen im Werk von Inge Morath an, die nicht zum Mainstream ihrer Arbeit gehören, die aber eine ganz besondere Qualität besitzen.

Through a series of studio visits that culminated in an artist talk at Residency Unlimited, Dalton and I examined racism and the language systems that perpetuate it; the black body; silenced black people; the African diaspora and its religions; performance and rituals; nature and healing; black protagonism.

In this warm and soft book, covered by a blood red fabric, artist Rosana Paulino brings together for the first time the series of drawings that give their title to the publication: Buffalo and Lady of Plants. Both represent female archetypes related to the black psyche, and they go against the dominant European and colonial collective consciousness.

Subduing our bodies, in the sense of controlling our impulses and desires, is an aspiration which is older than Christianity. At that time, the dominant question was: how do you get good control over yourself? Christianity made women the symbol of possible loss of control over our bodies. Achieving our self-control turned into being able to control the woman, to avoid the temptation that she, malevolent, represents.

The book ...Umas […Some] begins before I existed. First of all, because of the artist's own connection with the newspaper: Lenora de Barros worked for many years behind the production of magazines and newspapers, artistically thinking the process of some of the main publications that still circulate in Brazil. The newspaper Folha de São Paulo, as it is known today, also has a lot of her touch.

In 2018, the Museum Villa Stuck presented a comprehensive retrospective with works by the goldsmith and silversmith Rudolf Bott. The book accompanying the exhibition is a 672-page monumental work.

With a 340-page photo report by Jörg Koopmann and Lene Harbo Pedersen, who photographed the objects across Europe at the lenders and in Bott's studio.

Die großen, grotesken Fotoserien von Anna und Bernhard Blume sind heute wohlbekannt. In ihnen inszenieren die Künstler im dokumentarischen Gestus paranormale Situationen, die sich im Inneren einer „kleinbürgerlichen“ Welt oder in symbolisch besetzten Regionen deutscher Kunst (wie dem Schwarzwald) abspielen.

You ever read the back of a book and blah blah blah words and more words, and function. Poets depend on the emotional character of words. Manuals depend on the instructiveness of words. Yet words can be pronounced backwards or cut up and given new meaning, they can be looked at for their mathematical value, pondered over how they change in translation or seen as hiding messages within them.

Between December 2022 and March 2023, Vivian Suter shared hundreds of photos, all taken with her mobile phone, with the designer and editor of this book.
