Farbenmensch
Kirchner
Edited by the Bavarian State Picture Collections
Reconstructing the creative process of one of the

most eminent German artists of the 20th century,
Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, this book collects his
Munich pictures, numerous on-loan paintings,
infrared photographs, and original photos of his
studio and sketchbooks. For the first time, works
hidden on the verso of paintings are shown as
well. The catalog provides new insights into the
development process of important Kirchner paint-
ings, such as Circus, Dancing School, and Self-
Portrait as a Sick Man, and shows the intensity
with which the artist tried to come to grips with
color theory and luminance. This book renders
accessible, in an immediate way, his quest for
new approaches to color, which led to a revolu-
tion of painterly expression at the beginning of
20th century.
The Bavarian State Picture Collections is based in 1

Munich and oversees the collections of artwork
held by the state of Bavaria that are on display in
numerous galleries and museums.

Paul Klee
Mythos Fliegen
Edited by Christof Trepesch
Presenting eminent works on loan from interna-

tional collections, this catalog traces Paul Klee’s
artistic development between 1916 and 1919. On
March 5, 1916, exactly one day after the death of
Franz Marc, Paul Klee was conscripted for military
service, first in Landshut and then in Schleißheim.
On January 16, 1917, finally, he was redeployed to
the Royal Bavarian Flying School V in Gersthofen
near Augsburg. Despite highly unfavorable condi-
tions, he entered a prolific artistic period there
that lasted until end of the war. Aside from the
theme of “flying,” landscapes play an important
role in Klee’s art from this period, and the use of
forms he developed provided the basis for the
works he created during his time at the Bauhaus
and the Academy of Art in Düsseldorf. The book
includes contributions by Georg Dietmair, Lorenz
Dittmann, Thomas Elsen, Uta Gerlach-Laxner, Tilo
2 Grabach, Uwe Heckmann, Richard Ide, Annegret
Jürgens-Kirchhoff, Eberhard Pfeuffer, Julia Quandt,
Shahab Sangestan, Christof Trepesch, Eva
Wiederkehr, and Thomas Wiercinski.

lungen und Museen Augsburg.

Hans Jörg
Glattfelder.
That Is the Case
Was der Fall ist
Edited by Sabine Schaschl
“I do not make retrospectives; I prefer instead to

make statements.” This attitude of the Zürich-
based artist Hans Jörg Glattfelder is also visible
in his works. Strictly geometric forms and vivid
blocks of color comprise an oeuvre, which
constantly oscillates between concrete art and
constructivism and develops both further. The
present volume brings together five decades of
creative work, which is largely determined by an
analysis of scientific and philosophic questions.
In various texts, Glattfelder comments on his
own work, an overtly clear, but in its significance
all the more complex, oeuvre.
Sabine Schaschl is the director of the museum

4 Haus Konstruktiv in Zurich, Switzerland.

Michael Raedecker
Edited by Reinhard Spieler
Michael Raedecker occupies his own unique

position within the field of contemporary
painting: essentially dedicated to figuration,
he replaces the concrete surroundings of his
motifs with fields of color. His houses, plants,
and laundry pieces can be understood as
critical analyses of painting and pictorial
composition and are often characterized by a
mystical atmosphere. Typical of Raedecker’s
works is the combination of paint and thread.
The contours of his motifs are developed as
three-dimensional drawings with the aid of
colored woolen threads embroidered into the
canvas. This comprehensive exhibition catalog
features the artist’s works from Wilhelm-
Hack-Museum in Ludwigshafen and the
Sprengel Museum in Hannover.
Reinhard Spieler is an art historian and the 5

director of the Wilhelm-Hack-Museum in
Ludwigshafen, Germany.

Dilemma
Part 1
Christian Eisenberger
Christian Eisenberger’s work oscillates in the tension

between the artistic recycling of trash in the manner of
Arte Povera and the exploration of performing practices
using the artist’s body in public space. In the style of
Appropriation Art, Eisenberger’s work is verging on the
limits of taste and is excessively breaking the rules of the
art market. The artist builds ephemeral installations and
fragile sculptures using fire and ice and works himself
into the ground as a proliferating producer of images.
This collection of Eisenberger’s sketches, designs, and
reflections addresses issues of destruction and endanger-
ing, self-exposure and form finding, creation and death.
His oeuvre consists of thousands of paintings and draw-
ings and is well renowned far beyond Austria’s borders.
Christian Eisenberger is an Austrian artist living and

working in Vienna.

Inventing Faces
Rhetorics of Portraiture
Between Renaissance
and Modernism
Edited by the
Gemäldegalerie Berlin State Museums
The portrait is defined by the postulate of

similarity; the interpretation of a likeness,
however, does not stop with the identification
of depicted persons. In this book, acclaimed
authors approach the portrait genre from visual
studies and linguistic perspectives, which led
them on an impressive journey through time
from the Middle Ages to the present and into
the future. The portrait is explored as a com-
plex result of the triad of model, artist, and
recipient. From this perspective, the wordless-
ness of visual depictions proves erroneous, as
portraits develop their own forms of expression
and codes, which aim at dialog with the
viewer. The face is thus not understood as a
7
given feature of nature, but as a symbol or
concept; looking at, interpreting, and reading
faces is intrinsically connected with the search
for human identity. This collection of essays is
edited by Mona Körte, Ruben Rebmann, Judith
Elisabeth Weiss, and Stefan Weppelmann
on behalf of Gemäldegalerie – Berlin State
Museums and the Center for Literary and
Cultural Research Berlin.
The Gemäldegalerie is the art museum where

the main selection of paintings belonging to
the Berlin State Museums is displayed, holding
one of the world’s leading collections of
European paintings from the 13th to the 18th
centuries. It is located in Berlin, Germany.

Philipp Uffenbach
Ein Frankfurter Maler um 1600
Ursula Opitz
In the eyes of numerous art historians, Frankfurt

painter Philipp Uffenbach (1566–1636) was never able
to break free from the influence of the great masters
of his era. He is considered an epigone of Grünewald
or an imitator of Dürer—devoid of genius—and worth
mentioning only as a teacher of Adam Elsheimer.
Presenting his surviving oeuvre in its entirety for the
first time, this publication reassesses Uffenbach’s
painting and sets the distorted picture right. By
means of extensive and hitherto untapped sources,
the author reconstructs the multifaceted biography
of a German artist of the Early Modern Age, including
his studies as a scientist and alchemist. This book fills
a gap in art-historical research into the transitional
period from the late Renaissance to the Baroque era.
Furthermore, it is also a well-founded contribution
to the art and social history of the city of Frankfurt
am Main.

Old Masters
Australia’s Great Bark Artists
Wally Caruana, Alisa Duff, Howard Morphy, and Luke Taylor
Bark painting, as practiced by Aboriginal artists of Arnhem

Land for millennia, is one of the great traditions of world art,
yet it was only recognized as such late in the 20th century.
Old Masters: Australia’s Great Bark Artists highlights the work
of 40 master painters who have carried one of the oldest
continuing traditions of art into the modern era. It features
the paintings of Narritjin Maymuru, Yirawala, Mawalan
Marika, David Malangi, and their contemporaries. These
men of high ritual standing were not only artists, but also
ceremonial and clan leaders, philosophers, advocates for
land rights and human rights, ambassadors, and politicians,
who recognized the power of art as the most eloquent means
to build bridges between Aboriginal and European society.
The book includes essays by renowned scholars of Aboriginal
art, biographies and portraits of the artists, and 122 full-
color plates of the paintings, made between 1948 and 1988,
from the National Museum of Australia’s rich and extensive
collection. This profile of the Museum’s unique collection
will serve as lasting documentation of these rare and fragile 11
works that have never before been exhibited or published
as a collection.
Wally Caruana is an independent curator, author, and consultant specializing in Indigenous Australian art. For nearly 20 years
he was the senior curator of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander art collections at the National Gallery of Australia, Can-
berra. He was the consultant curator for the Old Masters: Australia’s Great Bark Artists exhibition at the National Museum of
Australia. Alisa Duff has worked for more than 20 years in the cultural sector and her current role is lead curator of Old Mas-
ters: Australia’s Great Bark Artists at the National Museum of Australia. Howard Morphy is the director of the Research School
of Humanities and the Arts at the Australian National University, Canberra, and has published widely in the areas of anthro-
pology, art, and religion. Luke Taylor is an anthropologist who has worked with bark painters in western Arnhem Land for
more than 30 years. He currently maintains an adjunct position with the Research School of Humanities and the Arts at the
Australian National University, Canberra.

Clothing the Sacred:
Medieval Textiles
as Fabric, Form
and Metaphor
Edited by Mateusz Kapustka and Warren T. Woodfin
At their most basic level, liturgical vestments and textiles

differentiate the sacred and the profane, the clergy and the
laity. Not only are they sacred objects in their own right, being
consecrated to a holy use, but they point beyond themselves
to historical parallels—to events in the life of Christ or to the
furnishings of the Jerusalem Temple—or to anagogical symbolism
of the heavenly graces. This collection of essays explores the uses
and meanings of these medieval religious textiles.
Mateusz Kapustka is a former assistant professor at the University

of Wroclaw and a member and coordinator of the ERC/SNF TEXTILE
project at the Art History Institute of the University of Zurich. He
is also a research assistant in the department of early modern art

Lateral Inversions
The Prints of Barry Cleavin
Melinda Johnston
Lavishly illustrated with more than 120 color plates,

this survey of one of New Zealand’s leading printmak-
ers draws from Barry Cleavin’s vast output to present
a major representative sample of his prints and
drawings from 1966 through 2012. Over more than five
decades, Cleavin has developed thematic groupings,
created visual echoes and provided contemporary
twists on age-old traditions on his way to forging an
immediately recognizable style that ranges from
lightly humorous parody to caustic social comment.
Selected works are presented within the context of
Cleavin’s wider oeuvre, but they are also placed
within their social and historical background, demon-
strating the range of the artist’s talent and providing
significant new insights into his work and thematic
concerns. Written in a generally accessible style and
with a glossary that explains terms to a nonspecialist
audience, Lateral Inversions invites readers to view the
world through Barry Cleavin’s unique lens, prompting 13
a wider consideration of humankind’s fragile and
often absurd existence.

tion curator for cartoons at the Alexander Turnbull
Library in Wellington, New Zealand. She is a former
lecturer in art history at the University of Canterbury

14 Piranesi’s Grandest Tour
From Europe to Australia
Colin Holden
The 18th-century Italian printmaker Giovanni Battista Piranesi achieved fame for his
etchings of real and imaginary buildings: Roman ruins, baroque cityscapes, and
fantastical prisons. This retrospective reassesses his life and his art, as well as the
complex world of his son, Francesco, whose promotion of his father’s work was over-
shadowed by allegations of espionage. The book also reveals the story of Australian
collectors of Piranesi’s work and his influence on Australian artists, from Russell
Drysdale to Rick Amor and Marco Luccio.
Colin Holden is a social historian and a senior fellow in the School of Historical and
Philosophical Studies at Melbourne University. He has been a guest curator of exhibi-
tions at the National Gallery of Victoria, the State Library of Victoria, and the Geelong
Art Gallery, and has published extensively on the visual arts, nationalism, radical
politics, and the churches.

The Making of a New
“Differential Space”
Permanent Site-Specific Art in
America and the Dia Art Foundation
(1974–2006)
Mira Banay
Permanent site-specific artworks were erected in the

1970s both in urban sites and in remote desert locations
in the southwestern United States, with the support
of the Dia Art Foundation. The American desert under-
went considerable change and development, gradually
becoming home to scientific research centers, military
installations, and nuclear testing sites, as well as a hub
of artistic activity. The book focuses on the sociopolitical
significance of the site-specific art in which this multi-
functional space is an essential element. The physical
and social context endows the works with added values,
turning them into visual signs of an alternative space.
The new space they have created may well be dubbed a
“differential space,” as defined by Henri Lefebvre. They
17
serve as a form of reparation, whereby the concrete
object is used to achieve repression through enchantment.
Mira Banay has an MA in art history from Tel Aviv

University and PhD in art and visual history from
Humboldt University in Berlin. She is the author of
the textbook The Gesamtkunstwerk: Idea and Its
Manifestation in Artworks through the 19th and 20th
Centuries, and serves as teaching coordinator and head
of two art history courses at the Open University, Israel.

Skulptur und Platz
Raumbesetzung –
Raumüberwindung – Interaktion
Edited by Alessandro Nova and Stephanie Hanke
Public places provide the stage for the social life of

a city, and this is why they have always been the
preferred site for the display of sculptural works.
Reaching beyond artistic claims and in concert with
the surrounding architecture, they mark social, political,
legal, and ritual spaces. Like chess pieces, they are
placed, realized, and replaced strategically, some
slipping from their assigned role and taking on trans-
formed meaning under new rulers. The 14 contributions
of this anthology shine a light on the spatial interplay
of sculpture and urban environments from the Early
Modern Age to the present.
Alessandro Nova is an Italian art historian and the

director of the Art History Institute Florence at the

Material, Technik,
Ästhetik und
Wissenschaft der
Farbe 1750–1850
Eine produktionsästhetische
Studie zur ›Blüte‹ und zum
›Verfall‹ der Malerei in
Deutschland am Beispiel Berlin
Annik Pietsch
This study focuses on the profound changes of

painting materials and techniques as well as the
shift in aesthetic and scientific concepts of color
between 1750 and 1850. In this period, there was a
break in the tradition, after which paintings not only
showed a great variety of painting techniques and
materials but also unusual damage from ageing.
Annik Pietsch examines whether interdependencies
exist between the phenomena of the damage and 19
the topoi, between practice and discourse. She
traces the transition from a craft-oriented painting
practice to a scientifically reflected one and on to
an emphasis on autonomy. This process involves the
re-evaluation of coloring and painting techniques,
which are transformed from a means of representa-
tion to prominent forms of painterly expression. The
author has combined her competences as a restorer,
biochemist, and art historian to conduct a study that
connects theory and practice in a compelling way.
Annik Pietsch was a biochemist, an art historian, and

a scientific assistant at Max Planck Institute for the
History of Science in Berlin.

Matters of Weight
Force, Gravity, and Aesthetics
in the Early Modern Period
Edited by David Young Kim
To speak of weight is to acknowledge artistic agency and ambition,

the deliberate calibration of materials and support that involves risk,
at times to the point of collapse. Weight ultimately deals with the
force of works of art, their heaviness and thus their presence, a
physical and metaphorical characteristic that informs our aesthetic
comprehension of things in the world. The book examines the theory
and exploitation of weight as an aesthetic category in works of art,
1350–1700. Drawing from the interdisciplinary expertise of specialists
in the history of mechanics, painting, prints, sculpture, and architec-
ture, this volumes probes the deployment of weight as a compelling
denominator in objects of study—be they scientific instruments,
canvas paintings, marble sculptures, or buildings.

of The Traveling Artist in the Italian Renaissance as well as articles

Modern and/or
Totalitarian in
the Architecture
of the 20th
Century
in Slovakia
Henrieta Moravciková
This publication takes on a controversial

theme in Slovak architecture: the influence
of totalitarian or authoritarian political
regimes on architectural production.
Particular attention is devoted to the
relationship between modernity and
totalitarian/authoritarian order. Using
selected works of 20th-century architecture
in Slovakia, it is shown how the different
ideas of the state authorities had varying
22 effects on the formal aspects of architecture,
and how the architects themselves reacted
to these ideas. At the same time, an indica-
tion is provided of how this architecture was
received by the public at the time of its creation and how it is evaluated today, at a distance of several decades. The analytic
architectural-historical texts are supplemented by a rich selection of archival illustrative material, as well as contemporary
photographs by Olja Triaska Stefanovic.
Henrieta Moravcíková is an architect, a teacher, and the author of A Brief History of Slovak Architecture. She is a senior
researcher and head of the department of architecture at the Institute of Construction and Architecture at the Slovak A
cademy of Sciences. She is also a theorist, historian, and critic of 20th- and 21st-century architecture.

Age of Electricity
Pioneering Achievements
in Electrical Engineering
Photographs from the
Siemens Historical Institute
Edited by Siemens Historical Institute
From a small Berlin backyard workshop to a global

corporation, Siemens is one of the few industrial
companies that can look back on such a long and
successful tradition. For over 160 years, the Siemens
name and brand represents strength of innovation,
top technological achievements, quality, reliability,
and international presence. This book is not so much
about paying tribute to the efforts and accomplish-
ments of Werner von Siemens. Rather, it focuses on
the era of the second generation of entrepreneurs
and the pioneering days of heavy-current engineer-
ing: its fantastic photos put the spotlight on selected
reference projects in the business sectors of energy,
mobility, industry, and communication, showing
how Siemens advanced the electrification of infra- 23
structure and everyday life on a global scale. The
illustrations convey a vivid and impressive picture
of the pioneering feats achieved by this power
engineering company between the 1880s and early
1930s in Germany, Europe, Latin America, and Asia.
The Siemens Historical Institute has documented and

presented the history of the technology company
since its founding in 1847.

Mark Leonhard
A Few Feet Away
Edited by Klaus Honnef
Mark Leonhard is well known especially for his

photographic portrait studies; this time, however,
he takes the public by surprise with images of
nature. His photographs of trees and bushes with
dense foliage or the intricate network of twigs and
branches offer nothing for the viewer’s eyes to fixate
on. And this is precisely what is so special about the
works of Mark Leonhard: he reduces the camera’s
depth of field to such an extent that foreground and
background seem to merge, forced into one single
level of perception. The result is images of nature
without space or depth.

Boris Németh
Presenting a selection of Boris Németh photographs from 2007 to 2013, this book displays the ordinary days of people in
Europe, their public holidays, sadness, celebrations, protests, and marches and riots in Ukraine, the Netherlands, and
Slovakia. Németh records typical journalistic subjects such as political demonstrations, anticorruption protests, folk festivals,
religious holidays, and rituals, but also events such as music festivals, nightclubs, and air shows. Documentary photographer
Boris Németh looks over fences and shoulders, to report how we live.
Boris Németh studied photography at the Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Bratislava and works there as a part-time
teacher of photojournalism. He has worked at Tyzden magazine as a photojournalist, has won several photography awards,
and is represented in the collections of the Slovak National Gallery and the VUB Foundation.

Karoo
Long Time Passing
Photographs by Obie Oberholzer
“While many other photographers’ images either make you feel optimistic or profoundly moved, Oberholzer’s can make you
feel both simultaneously.” —Sunday Times (South Africa)
“Oberholzer turns the mundane into the extraordinary.” —Business Day’s Wanted magazine
Showcasing the natural beauty of South Africa’s Karoo region, acclaimed photographer Obie Oberholzer trains his lens on
the landscape and people of the extensive, semidesert area. In doing so, he presents it as it has never been seen before:
colorful, mysterious, vibrant, and always surprising. Fans of landscape photography will find here a ticket to a wild, even
ferocious land but also one that is undeniably stunning.
Obie Oberholzer is a freelance photographer and a former associate professor of photography at Rhodes University in
South Africa. His work has been exhibited in South Africa, Germany, Spain, the United States, and other countries. He has
published nine books of his work, including Limburg’s Momento Mori, Long Ago Way, and Round the Bend.

Italian Panorama Italiano, Vol. 1

This journey into Italian architecture is an ongoing enquiry into the diverse project typologies being currently developed—the
degree of their innovation and the way they mesh with technical requirements. The book focuses on how the many aspects
of Italian architecture developed by Italian architects working in Italy today deal with the layers of building history that have
gone before. The works selected have been taken from the “Panorama Italiano” section on www.theplan.it and include
urban and rural residences, public and cultural buildings, office and commercial blocks, social housing, and broader urban
planning projects. All testify to the vitality of Italian architecture today.
