»Also muss die Wahrnehmung eine instinktive Fähigkeit der Seele sein, basierend auf einer profunden und essentiellen Geometrie, jener Geometrie, die sich aus den einfachen Teilungen eines Kreises ableitet. All das hatte er schon seit langem für wahr gehalten. Nun machte es sich daran, den kurzen Schritt zur Fusion von Symbol und Objekt zu tun. Der Kreis ist der Träger der reinen Harmonien, reine Harmonien wohnen der Seele inne, also sind Seele und Kreis eins.« aus Kepler von John Banville

Immer mehr Museen öffnen sich nach langer Tabuisierung für einen transparenten Umgang mit Fälschungen, tauschen Erkenntnisse aus und entscheiden sich – falls notwendig – Werke aus der Sammlung abzuschreiben.

Plants are among the most important materials for effective landscape design. Yet the fundamentals of plant biology and growth; their morphology, color, and functional assets; and details such as planting, pruning techniques, and maintenance practices are surprisingly absent from our education and training, which tend to focus on other core principles like drainage, grading, and spatial relationships.

Midnight Deer Abstractions is a collaboration between artist Geoff Farnsworth and poet Erin Knight to produce limitless in-betweens and vast spaces where slight variations contain all the precisions of colour and diction, rendered immediately nebulous. Creating spectral selves, they invite us to look “between foreground and background” for the traces and sketches of identities, whose edits are vague, always disappearing to be retraced, resketched.

Linda Carreiro and Lan “Florence” Yee refute the notion that what cannot be apprehended is worthless. Their glossary may be read as a manifesto encouraging us to pay more attention to the blurs and vagueness of our environments and thoughts, and to our societies’ invisibilities – prompting us to open our creative minds and welcome uncertainties and the unknown with generosity.

This book follows the first exhibition of Robilliard’s notebooks, ‘Disorganised Writings and Sketches’ at Rob Tufnell in Cologne in April 2019.

This book is aimed at tracing a connection between the architecture of the Albanian tradition and the informal nature of the spontaneous transformations of contemporary Tirana. The attempt to establish a link between the opposing features of functionalist formalism, typical of the city that grew during the totalitarian regimes, and those of the informal architecture, which represent the constructive freedom of recent times aims to provide a critical interpretation that is applicable to recent interventions for the recovery of the existing built heritage.

Beginning in the 1990s, the efflorescence of a technology-driven, ostensibly post-industrial “new economy” brought with it a revival of interest in an array of concepts and discourses relating systems and systems thinking that had animated both progressive utopian projects of the 1960s and 70s and the totalizing global geopolitical schemas of the Cold War.

Jasper Johns (b. 1930) is arguably the most influential artist living today.

Neue Straßen überwinden das Leitbild der autogerech­ten Stadt und zeigen so die wiedergefundene Bedeutung öffentlichen Raums auf. So werden aus reinen Verbin­dungs- und Erschließungslinien multifunktionale Aufenthalts- und Begegnungsräume.

New streets overcome the model of the car-friendly city and thus demonstrate the rediscovered importance of public space. In this way, pure connecting and access routes are transformed into multifunctional recreational and meeting spaces.

In the first half of the 20th century, when architecture and literature dreamed of transparency, glass was the material these dreams were made of. However, the historiography of both fields usually focuses on a few canonical works by male authors to tell the story of this shared fascination. Departing from this imbalance,

Lush vegetation intertwines with the constructed buildings and staircases of James’ imagination and with Douglas’ own, in experiencing this garden and the rich culture of Mexico.

Bernhard Cella's performance uncovers the artistic potential of everyday situations associated with physical and mental mobility. The artist draws up scenes of European lockdown cowboys misappropriating props of lost urban life, celebrating memories of authentic knowledge sanctuaries, uninhibited revealing in open public spaces and inebriation with the flow of social interaction.
Cella manipulates and strings together various aesthetic aspects of fading cultural artifacts and, in collaboration with an art audience, produces a transformed experiential space-for a limited time only.

‘Professor M looked down at his paunch and sighed. At 56 his physical decline, long established, hadn't got any easier to endure. Work didn't help. And neither would this meeting. In fact, he was dreading it. If she had shown his letter to the Dean he was done, and he knew it was his own doing. What a fool. He knew he had been kidding himself. Times had changed, and he knew that too.

Korrosion Kindheit // 1988 war Siggi Hofer – „der Künstler, der fiktive Welten schafft, diese mit realen Ereignissen mischt“ (Siggi Hofer) – 18. Das ist 19 Jahre her – der Künstler hat also seither länger gelebt, als er zu diesem Zeitpunkt bereits lebte; muß man daraus schließen,
es habe sich so gewaltig viel an Erinnerungsmasse aufgetürmt währenddem, daß dieses eine Jahr, mit 18 erlebt und 19 Jahre vorbei, bereits in den Orkus des Nicht-mehr Wissens rutschen musste? 1989, da war freilich was, aber 1988?

The things one finds wandering in a landscape: familiar things and utterly unknown, like a flower one has never seen before, or, as Columbus discovered, an inexplicable continent; and then, behind a hill, as if knitted by giant grandmothers, lies this vast rabbit, to make you feel as small as a daisy.
