As differentiated as art history is today, a major chapter has been largely neglected: the craft of the interior decorator. And this, even though the delicate aesthetic sensibilities, the sense of color, and the eye for composition required to decorate private rooms have more direct influence on our lives than any work of art in any museum could lay claim ...

Thomas Ruff
Thomas Ruffs Fotoserien berühren - unverwandt blicken uns aus überlebensgroßen Porträts junge Menschen an, sterile Hausfassaden kommentieren die Tristesse der Vorstädte, verpixelte Aktfotos aus Internetpornos lassen zentrale Details kaum erahnen und verweisen doch auf die Macht dieser Bilder. In Ausstellungen zeigt der Fotograf groß dimensionierte Abzüge, die nur wenige Male hergestellt werden. Er produziert jedoch konsequent auch kleinformatige Fotoprints in ...

Philipp Zitzlsperger
The relationship between art and design has always been the subject of controversial discussion, not just since the Arts and Crafts movement began. The relationship between the two genres can look back on a long history of different positions, approaches, and new distinctions. A change in perspective is therefore urgently required. Zitzelsperger's argumentation is a historical one that traces the ...

FREUD
Sigmund Freud himself was certainly aware of the significance of psychoanalysis when he founded it: he saw it on the same level as the Copernican revolution and Darwin's theory of evolution. The theory of the subconscious, which today has the status of an anthropological paradigm, originated at Berggasse 19 in Vienna. Today, in the building where Freud lived and had ...
