"Being a young photographer, Sandra Mann decided to portray her own generation, or rather her generation’s nightlife. She captures the nightly scenes in clubs and discotheques not only through the lens of her camera, but as a member of the scene itself. The viewer is provided with intimate, sometimes erotic sights of artists, dancers, musicians, and well-known DJs/VJs. Apart from international underground celebrities, Mann also portrays ..."
"In 2006, The New York Times' art critic Roberta Smith described Art Basel Miami as, " a decentralized sprawling mass of excitement and display, plus lots of disposable wealth. It is the art world's version of Mardi Gras." The Miami fair's more established European partner, Art Basel, has been described as "the Olympics of the art world," and "a modern art mecca" by The New York Times and the Wall Street Journal respectively. Add to thes ..."
"The young Leipzig painter Matthias Weischer, born in 1973, depicts suburban interiors that can appear at once pleasantly furnished and ominously vacated. Abstract patterns in wallpaper or carpet suggest households that have been lovingly attended to, but Weischer invests this decor with an oddly noisy insistence, so that its sheer "effect" invades any space a human presence might occupy. Often an entire ceiling or a part of a wall is om ..."
"The book, which is accompanied by 80 facsimiles of original sketches, drawings, letters and postcards, tells the story of a long-standing close collaboration between the artist, Dieter Roth, and Hans Langenbacher, a goldsmith in Lucerne and ..."
"The German Stock Exchange in Frankfurt, headquartered in Germany and Luxembourg, has significantly extended its collection of photographs in the last year, acquiring primarily large-format works by upcoming artists. Hence the necessity to produce XL Photography 2, sequel to the two-year-old XL Photography. This volume features photographers who employ an unparalleled range of modes of design and expression, spanning the rather classical ..."

"Since the early 80s, Bettina Rheims has been one of the most sought-after contemporary photographers. She came to fame with unusual portraits of women and female nudes. Both celebrities and unknowns posed for her in stagings of glamour and fame, of fashion, beauty, sex, and seduction. Her subject is the visualization of female eroticism in its sensual, emotional and disquieting varieties, her trademark is a sensitive and delicate, ye ..."
"The oeuvre of Marlene Dumas is primarily characterized by her watercolors. Suggestive works, they appear to be based mostly on photographs from magazines which Dumas blurs, crops, or distorts. In doing so, the artist explores the sexualized dynamics between the picture, the painter, and the viewer. Her always openly sensual representations of human bodies and faces deal with some of the questions central to life. Wet Dreams features a b ..."
