How to Not Fuck Up Your Art-World Happiness
A light-hearted effort to make the art world a little bit happier, from the cofounder of Larry's List After living and working in the art world for the past 15 years, Christoph Noe brought pen to paper to gather some thoughts on how to navigate the culture industry. "It first developed foremost as a guide for myself as I continuously challenge the mission that I am on in the art world, asking myself why I am still doing what I am doing," he reports. "Or sometimes, more dramatically, 'If art is used in therapy, why do we almost need therapy when working in the art industry?'" Following multiple conversations and with the encouragement of his art-world crew, Noe hopes that these guidelines can function as a possible motivator for those in the industry. Christoph Noefounded the Ministry of Art in 2005 with a focus on Chinese artists from the post-1970s and 1980s generation. In 2013 he cofounded Larry's List, a premier resource for art collectors.

Li Hui
Li Hui (1977 in Beijing) creates three-dimensional sculptures and installations, generally out of powerful materials such as steel, wood, and laser or LED lights. His works generate surreal atmospheres: the wreck of a shattered ship, for instance, hovers above viewers' heads; red laser beams envelop the ruins of a car; prehistoric-looking skeletons are stored in vehicles or display cases illuminated by bluish light. According to the artist, these environments are to be regarded as references to Buddhist philosophy, which says that when opposites collide, something new is created. This extensive monograph is the first to examine the artist's most recent works, dating from 2005 to the present. In collaboration with the Zentrum für Internationale Lichtkunst Unna, the editor, curators, and critics shed light on Hui's themes, techniques, perspectives, and motivation; on an artist who combines the skills and knowledge of Western art and culture with the values of an Eastern worldview.
