Matthias Meyer
Matthais Meyer's paintings of cityscapes and landscapes combine and collide Monet's lusciously dissolved figuration with Gerhard Richter's harrowed, striated abstraction. (Meyer was a student of Richter's at the Düsseldorf Academy in the early 1990s.) On What Is Really Seen reproduces works from 2005 to the present.
New Homes in a New Land
This work is essentially a compilation of information gleaned from the passenger lists of ships that arrived at Galveston between the years 1847 and 1861. It is also the story of the German immigration to Texas during this formative period of Texas history.
Checklist of Painters from 1200-1994
The Witt Library of the Courtauld Institute of Art, London, is one of the world's greatest art history libraries. It contains some 1.7 million illustrations of the work of painters, draughtsmen, and engravers of the Western tradition, all of whom have been indexed by name, dates, and nationality. This new second edition of the Checklist of Painters is a transcription of the Witt index as it currently exists. The names of 66,000 artists, their dates, and their nationality (or school) are reproduced in alphabetical order. The Checklist of Painters is probably the most exhaustive work of its kind in existence; it now lists all painters (known by art historians) to have lived and worked from the year 1200 to 1994. It will be an important reference text in the art history collection of any public, academic, or professional library.

Passengers Listed in the "Allgemeine Auswanderungs-Zeitung," 1848-1869
The AAZ (General Emigration Newspaper), published from 1846-1871, included lists of emigrants. Only part of the multitude of entries about Germans abroad were selected for this book, namely those in immediate connection with emigration or passage. This includes name lists of passengers that were completely or partially printed. Also included are names of persons who suffered shipwreck, and names of emigrants who died in a hospital shortly after arrival. Information about the passengers includes: number; surname; first name and details; origin; ship; from and to; departure and arrival; and issue. This index of 29,637 names of emigrants will help many genealogists to connect their family with a specified German town. (606pp. Masthof Press, 2014.)
