Softcover. Zustand: Gut bis sehr gut. 1. Auflage. Z : 24 x 34 cm, Softcover, 128 pages, 90 color & 2 b/w illustrations - Lavishly illustrated monograph providing a first overview of Swiss artist's work. The Swiss artist David Renggli (born 1974, lives and works in Zurich) uses everyday items to create his surrealistic worlds in which objects suddenly appear to be individually souled: plant leaves take the form of a mobile, plush fabric forms a rare mythical creature, etc. His sculptures evoke a world of fairy tales and ghosts in a post-industrial society which once again yearns for fetishes.

Hardcover. Zustand: Sehr gut. 1. Auflage. Z : 24,5 x 34,5 cm, Hardcover, 156 pages, 122 color illustrations - With its carefully chosen pictures, this book provides an overview of Gian Paolo Minelli's work over the last decade. The photographs were taken in thematic series, often over an extended period. Until now, they have mostly been exhibited and published separately; indeed, many are being shown here for the first time. The choice of images is designed to demonstrate that behind the various work cycles, portraits, urban landscapes of the Piedra Buena Barrio, awnings suspended over parking lots, props left behind in the abandoned Teatro Colón, the eloquent walls of the former Cárcel de Caseros penitentiary, and the portraits of illegal immigrants in Rome, there lies a common, powerful approach.

Hardcover. Zustand: Sehr gut. 1. Auflage. Z : 24 x 34 cm, Hardcover, 144 pages, 92 color & 6 b/w illustrations - The photographs of Los Angeles-based artist Charlie White explore the complex social and psychological realities of American culture. "American Minor" delves into an important subtext of White's work: the American teen. By cataloging studio archives, film stills, animation stills, scripts, and photographs, the book highlights the artist's investigations into the representation of the American teen girl. Through images culled from the artist's two-year study of an ex-urban teenager, archives of magazine covers featuring iconic blonde models, stills from his first 35 mm film, and his photographic comparative study of teens and transgenders, "American Minor" presents White's ongoing and never-before-seen studies of the American teen subject as image and idea. This book sheds new light on the artist's oeuvre within the context of his new work in film, animation, and cultural archiving.

Hardcover. Zustand: Sehr gut. 1. Auflage. Z : 24,5 x 34,5 cm, Hardcover, 152 pages, 60 color illustrations - Two of Clegg & Guttmann's typologies of photograph are the subject of this large-format monograph: Portraits and Artworks and Collaborative Portraits. If the first category reunites portraits of men and women around artworks, the second one gathers together collaborations between Clegg & Guttmann and other artists (Collier Schorr, Martin Kippenberger, Thomas Nordanstad, Joseph Kosuth, Franz West, Franz Erhard Walther, David Robbins, Christoph Schlingensief, etc.). This volume is the first illustrated book dedicated entirely to their photographs. It is accompanied by a text by Clegg & Guttmann, as well as by an introduction by Tobia Bezzola.

Hardcover. Zustand: Sehr gut. 1. Auflage. Z : 24,5 x 34,5 cm, Hardcover, 132 pages, 79 color illustrations - By creating documentation, "Socialist Architecture: The Vanishing Act" captures the indecision of five particular emerging democracies today: Croatia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Montenegro, Macedonia, and Serbia, and the distinct effects their irresolution creates spatially and visually on former Yugoslav architecture.

Hardcover. Zustand: Sehr gut. 1. Auflage. Z : 24,5 x 34,5 cm, Hardcover, 156 pages, 98 color illustrations - "I come from painting." It is not surprising that Valérie Belin (born in 1964 in Boulogne-Billancourt, France, lives and works in Paris) should describe her work as coming from painting, for it would be curious indeed to call her a photographer. Although she uses a photographer's equipment, her masterful control of the technique enables her to transcend the imprint of reality and preclude reference to the world.
