Lois Weinberger
"Internationally renowned Lois Weinberger has played a key rote in the new debate about the relationship between art and nature. Having committed for a long time to the development of projects on green areas and sustainability, at the heart of his work lies the idea of a garden as a 'temporary perfect territory' in Liminal areas. The book presents the first publication on 30 years of Weinberger's work with a large photographic section on his main public interventions and outdoor gardens, including Empty Garden, Portable Gardens, Abandoned Gardens."

Arts, Ecologies, Transitions
Arts, Ecologies, Transitions provides in-depth insights into how aesthetic relations and current artistic practices are fundamentally ecological and intrinsically connected to the world.

Lois & Franziska Weinberger, Feldarbeit, field work
Lois und Franziska Weinberger zählen heute zu den international renommiertesten Künstlern in Österreich. Ihr Werk ist singulär, unverwechselbar und Teil der internationalen Kunstdiskussion zugleich. Ihre Arbeiten und Konzepte zeigen jene Kraft, unverwechselbare Ästhetik und soziales Engagement, die sie von vielen anderen abheben. Das Kunstbuch Lois und Franziska Weinberger beleuchtet zwei Aspekte ihres Werks, die in den bisherigen Veröffentlichungen über das Künstlerpaar kaum Beachtung gefunden haben: Zum einen wird das Frühwerk von Lois Weinberger vorgestellt, das Basis und Ausgangspunkt für seine heutigen Arbeiten bildet. Zum anderen werden die Zeichnungen, Skizzen, Textfragmente und Tücher, an denen die beiden Künstler seit vielen Jahren arbeiten, umfassend dokumentiert. Ergänzt durch Textbeiträge von Christoph Bertsch, Silvia Höller und Philippe Van Cauteren, dem Direktor des Stedelijk Museum voor Actuele Kunst in Gent, erlaubt dieses Kunstbuch einen umfassenden Einblick in die bislang noch kaum bekannten Facetten in der Arbeit von Lois und Franziska Weinberger.
