Rüstung & Robe
This publication looks at the high art of ironworking based on suits of armor and armaments from the late Middle Ages to the early modern period. The focus in particular is on the suit of armor as second skin, a theme where armor meets the evening gown – protection and decoration in one, opaque eye-catchers, body versus ornament are catchwords the authors explore.

WEST The development toward a globalized world has progressed inexorably during the past 20 years – with borders blurring and countries and cultures converging. This makes it virtually impossible to identify the “Western world” anymore in any geographic sense.

IN THE KITCHEN »In the Kitchen explores family life, youth culture, and coming of age. It encompasses the angst of being a teenager, the difficulties faced by a patchwork family, and the challenges of parenting six children. All of the photographs are set in my kitchen because it is the hub of my family’s life, a neutral zone we all occupy. The kitchen is the place in the house where our daily dramas are enacted. It’s where, together, we make a mess of things and do our best to clean it all up.« (Dona Schwartz)

GEFRORENE MOMENTE
Daniel Spoerris Fallenbilder im Dialog mit Judith Albert, David Claerbout, Caro Niederer, Beat Streuli, Jeff Wall Daniel Spoerri (*1930) began in the early 1960s to fix together random constellations of everyday objects. In what he called »picture traps« he glued the remains of meals or work processes to the surface on which they rested and then hung them vertically on the wall.
