In ihrem neuen Bildband "Floramour: Wildblumen" widmet sich die bekennende Gartenenthusiastin Anja Klaffenbacher all jenen Wildblumen, die uns beim Spaziergang auf Grünstreifen, Wiesenabschnitten, Parkflächen oder Wanderpfaden begegnen. Oft eher unscheinbar, mit kleinem Blütenkelch sind diese Wiesenblumen die Tupfer, die den Frühling und Sommer farblich prägen. Die Namen dieser Schönheiten sind dem Betrachter jedoch in der Regel unbekannt und diesem Umstand macht Klaffenbach nun ein Ende. Auf gewohnt liebevolle Art wird sich auch in dieser "Floramour"-Ausgabe mit dem jeweiligen Blumenthema auseinandergesetzt. Kurzweilig soll das Coffee Table Book sein, botanisches Wissen vermitteln und die Pflanzen von allen Seiten präsentieren, mit Fotos, Grafiken und Zeichnungen. Diese Aufgabe ist Klaffenbacher ganz hervorragend gelungen und herauskommt ein Bildband, der seinesgleichen sucht. Von außen wie von innen transportiert das Buch die Schönheit unserer Natur. Wer es aufschlägt, kommt sofort in Sommerstimmung und kann sich an den detailreichen und stimmungsvollen Bildern erfreuen. Klaffenbach zeigt in grandiosen Bildern die Ästhetik der Feldblumen, die im schnellen Schritt des Alltags oft kaum Beachtung findet. Der hochkarätige Bildband reiht sich als perfekte Ergänzung zu bereits erschienenen "Floramour"-Titeln ein und darf in dieser Sammlung auf keinen Fall fehlen. Wer ein außergewöhnlich schönes Buch als Geschenk für bekennende Blumenenthusiasten sucht, das voller Inspiration und Emotion steckt, der sollte nicht zögern hier zuzugreifen.

This volume brings together renowned scholars and early career-researchers in mapping the ways in which European cinema ¿whether arthouse or mainstream, fictional or documentary, working with traditional or new mediä engages with phenomena of precarity, poverty, and social exclusion. It compares how the filmic traditions of different countries reflect the socioeconomic conditions associated with precarity, and illuminates similarities in the iconography of precarious lives across cultures. While some of the contributions deal with the representations of marginalized minorities, others focus on work-related precarity or the depictions of downward mobility. Among other topics, the volume looks at how films grapple with gender inequality, intersectional struggle, discriminatory housing policies, and the specific problems of precarious youth. With its comparative approach to filmic representations of European precarity, this volume makes a major contribution to scholarship on precarity and the representation of social class in contemporary visual culture.Watch our book talk with the editors Elisa Cuter, Guido Kirsten and Hanna Prenzel here: https://youtu.be/lKpD1NFAx2o

Devotion, understood as pure, all-encompassing love that only wants to give without asking for anything in return, is one of the founding values of Dolce & Gabbana.At Dolce & Gabbana the concept of “devotion” is part of the very idea of work: it is as if something mystical is hidden behind every sketch, embroidery, and stitch. The fashion house’s most iconic bag is intentionally called Devotion precisely to pay homage to this feeling. A strongly sacred component accompanies many of the brand’s sartorial creations, accessories, and jewelry, which draw on the evocations of Sicilian popular culture mixed with a high degree of religiosity. And while the sacred heart, the saints, the Madonna, the rosary, and the cross are some of the most recurrent themes and elements in the collections, processions, funerals, masses, and the figures of bishops, popes, and religious devotees continue to represent a constant source of inspiration. In addition to the advertising campaigns, the most iconic images of the collections, and numerous shots portraying religious holidays in Sicily, the book will be enriched with many photos taken specifically for this publication by important Italian photographers under the direct guidance of Domenico Dolce on the set.

Spreeblitz is a collection of black and white photographs taken over a tenyear period in Spreepark, a themepark in Plänterwald in the Treptow-Köpenick suburb of Berlin that was formerly under GDR control. In 2001,the park declared bankruptcy, and thearea was characterized by ruin and vandalism. Berlin bought the parkback in 2014 and the plan is to reestablish the area as a modern cultural park around 2026. During the years nature has slowly reclaimed its old space. Texts by Jytte Rex and Tove Thage.Fie Johansen (b. 1953) is one of the pioneers of digital art photography in Denmark. She has infused digital technology with the spirit and soul of analogue darkroom technology. She studied and worked at the Institute for Visual Communication at the Royal Danish Academy while co-founding Billedhuset, an association of leading Danish and Swedish art and documentary photographers. She was awarded the Photographic Book Prize by the Ministry of Culture in 1997, and she took part in the extensive photo documentary project Denmark in Transition, from 2006 to 2011. She has been awarded thethree-year work grant from the Ministry of Culture and the Ole Haslund Foundation´s honorary award. “Fie Johansen masters and liberates photography. With few ordinary props, she creates cinematographic scenes and captures the tensions and anxieties of a claustrophobic urban environment where freedom, pleasure, and curiosity are now held in check, frozen in time. Spreeblitz is melancholy, but the sorrow is caught in a propitiatory humorous overawareness.The subjects stand independently, sometimes morphing into enigmatic, amorphous shadows. Not even a flashlight would help here, where the darkness in the deeplyt inted prints is all-encompassing.” (Tove Thage)

A book recounting the history and marvels of Reschio through an alphabet of stories and pictures of an ancient Italian estate beginning a new life.Reschio Estate sprawls over the hills of Umbria, north of Perugia and not far from Cortona, in the very heart of Italy, with its circular Castello at its highest point. Dating back one thousand years, it was revived when it was bought by Austro-Hungarian expatriate Count Antonio Bolza in the 1980s, and it has now been transformed into a group of villas and a spectacular hotel by his son Count Benedikt, who lives there with his wife Donna Nencia Corsini and their five children.Reschio Estate is every architect’s dream, and a total work of art. It spans nearly 1,330 hectares of land, and today half of the nearly fifty abandoned farmsteads have been transformed into beautiful villas. The 1940s tobacco warehouse has become the Tabaccaia, where the vibrant architectural and design studio brings Benedikt’s designs to life, with furniture and lighting made by local artisans. Ancient forests and meadows have been restored to their wild state, protecting the animals living in their natural habitat.
