Eva-Maria Fahrner-Tutsek
Street photography of street signs by Eva-Maria Fahrner-Tutsek. A man wearing a hat hurries across a zebra crossing; a girl with braids on her way to school; signs of restaurants that have long closed down; pictograms of vehicles that have long since ceased to be driven on the road. Concealed, faded, and rusting, the signs lie by the roadside. Their text and associative images have lost their connection with reality as if they had been forgotten in the landscape. Photographer Eva-Maria Fahrner-Tutsek has tracked down these anachronistic remains in Ibiza. With her camera, she releases the obsolete signs on the island from their state of being unheeded. The photographs reveal not only their humorous but also their artistic sides, left behind by time and weather. A photographic gem about impermanence, Fade Away, is a poetic photo publication as a reminiscence of the past.
Havana
Havana triggers a wealth of images and projections in our mind's eye. Beyond the clichés, the photographer Eva-Maria Fahrner-Tutsek focuses her gaze on everyday life in Havana. Her photographs show life in the streets and the mood of the people. As we look and read, the light and dark sides of the capital of Cuba are gradually revealed.
About Us
Grappling with sweeping social changes during the past thirty years of China's global rise, young artists have explored and crafted new identities through photography. While their works range across subjects--capturing bustling cityscapes and quiet landscapes, framing exuberant hopefulness and melancholic doubt--their experimentation speaks to a generational need for new aesthetic tools in an uncertain world. Featuring 150 photographs from the collections of Alexander Tutsek-Siftung, About Us offers a vibrant and in-depth survey of contemporary Chinese photography.
Ann Wolff
The German-Swedish artist Ann Wolff (born in 1937) is one of the most significant and exciting proponents of the European studio glass movement. She has an expert understanding of the characteristics of glass and how to show off the complete spectrum of its diverse possibilities of expression. The publication offers an extensive overview of the period of work over the last ten, prolific years. With most of her large-format sculptures, the medium of glass plays a central role, but Ann Wolff is not restricted to it alone; she also uses other materials, such as bronze, concrete or aluminium. The catalogue is boosted by additional selected drawings and pastels. Common to these is the eponymous m...
Ann Wolff
The German-Swedish artist Ann Wolff is a pioneer of the studio glass movement in Europe. Born in Lübeck in 1937, she has achieved international fame for her sculptures, which are mainly created with glass. But Wolff is also talented at drawing and has long considered it an important part of her artistic process. Wolff recently donated 130 previously unpublished drawings to the Alexander Tutsek-Stiftung, a nonprofit foundation and museum in Munich. Sixty of those works are now presented in this volume, representing the artist's output between 1981 and 1988. The works, executed in pencil on paper, focus on a female figure seen in reflections and duplications, sometimes surreal and whimsical, presented in connection with other figures including men, children, and animals. The pictures reveal their narrative potential as investigations of the female self during an age of changing feminist thought. The themes and motifs of these drawings serve as a template for Wolff's later sculptural works, making this collection a valuable resource on the artist's oeuvre.

In the Name of Love
Human beings yearn to give expression to love and the pain of love in art. Over the centuries, literature, music, painting and sculpture have reflected these eternal endeavours. Only a few of the initiated know that glass has developed as an interesting artistic material in recent decades. Sculptures on abstract themes have replaced the more traditional bowls or vases.
