Katharina Grosse
This is the most comprehensive monograph to date on the innovative abstract site related installations of German artist Katharina Grosse (b.1961). Grosse's daring move from the canvas into both architectural space and the landscape, with her signature colorful spray paintings, has resulted in a deeply compelling body of work. From a Toronto airport to a decrepit beach structure on the New York coast and the spaces of major museums worldwide, Grosse's works present thorough, yet temporary, carnivalesque transformations of extant places and situations. Author Gregory Volk has known Katharina Grosse and written about her work since the very outset of her career and has witnessed her journey from unique talent to radical visionary. As he suggests here, Grosse's continually developing practice, simultaneously ungainly and exhilarating, bewildering and liberating, radically extends the possibilities for contemporary abstract painting.

Katharina Grosse has created a spectacular walk in installation, almost 800 m2 in size, in a hall of the Museum Kunstpalast, using masses of earth, paint and lengths of fabric.This catalogue also documents her most recent paintings. Like the installations, they also take on remarkable dimensions, sometimes up to 36 m2, and break out of the pictorial space by the means of colour expansion.The catalogue was designed in close cooperation with the artist and published to coincide with the exhibition Inside the Speaker at Museum Kunstpalast, Düsseldorf, 30 September - 1 February 2014-15.Text in English / Dutch.

Katharina Grosse's vibrantly colored installation in the Hamburger Bahnhof This publication documents Berlin-based painter Katharina Grosse's (born 1961) installation in the historic hall of the Hamburger Bahnhof in Berlin.

The Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas
In "The Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas," Gertrude Stein masterfully crafts a unique literary narrative that transcends traditional biography. Through the eyes of her partner, Alice B. Toklas, Stein presents a vivid portrayal of the avant-garde art and literary scene in early 20th-century Paris. This work is characterized by its distinctive prose style—marked by repetition, simplicity, and a rhythmic cadence—that reflects Stein's experimental approach to language. The book not only serves as a personal account of Toklas's life but also encapsulates the essence of the vibrant cultural milieu that surrounded them, featuring notable figures such as Pablo Picasso and Ernest Hemingway.
