Stefan Marx draws a great deal on a variety of grounds: large- and small-sized, colored or white paper; on cardboard, porcelain, skateboards, or textiles. He also always likes to draw in small notebooks. He takes them everywhere, because they are convenient, lightweight, and are the right size for any idea. Marx has developed an edition out of these notebooks, with four different covers and surprising drawings here and there on the inside pages-four sketch books one ISBN. The luck of the draw, or coincidence, determines which cover goes to whom, or preferably, you can acquire the whole set, if you like. This is a unique notebook for all big and small ideas, thoughts, or texts.STEFAN MARX (*1979 Schwalmstadt, Hesse) is a draftsman, skateboarder, illustrator, and cultural philosopher.

His work has been seen in numerous international exhibitions, and he does illustrations for programs and labels. In August 2019 his columns on vegetables appeared daily in The New York Times.

That incomparable melancholy in Edward Hopper's pictures occasionally leads us to look at the details of his life. Where exactly did this master of loneliness live and work? What were his most important influences while he was working on his great paintings of America? In this wonderful, simply structured, A-to-Z book, Ulf Küster pursues these themes, which say a great deal about the painter and his interests, and yet he never loses sight of the artist and the necessary distance to his inimitable pictures.Thus, Küster strolls through the ABCs of Hopper's life and work, from the "American landscape," "Buick" "Goethe," and "shadow and sunlight" to the key word, "zero." On the way he opens up many new doors or insights, enriching the views of Hopper's paintings and making it possible to interpret them in new ways. An entertaining and informative book.EDWARD HOPPER (1882-1967) is the master of American Realism. His paintings captured life during his era.

At first glance the photographer Santeri Tuori's pictorial world appears to be timeless. On second glance, however, it becomes clear what is going on. Tuori's compositions of trees, tangled branches, and clouds are sophisticated montages made up of countless photos arranged sideby-side or on top of each other. This results in nearly abstract, fascinatingly complex images of nature; because it harmonizes with the sublime depiction of nature, the process of seeing transcends itself. The eye is no longer guided toward a vanishing point around which the image is organized. Instead, viewers luxuriate in an inexhaustible wealth of perspectives that allow them to continue to discover new phenomena. This goes along with the dramaturgy that stages the publication from one page to the next. At the beginning, you look up into the treetops. These are followed by pictures of clouds set at eye level. The final chord consists of a series of photographs that looks back to the abstract entanglement of the treetops. In every respect this is an uplifting illustrated volume.¿With his precise eye for peerless photography montages, SANTERI TUORI (*1970, Espoo, Finland) is one of the best-known figures from the Helsinki School. He studied at the University of the Arts in Berlin, as well as at Aalto University in Helsinki. His works are found in prominent exhibitions and collections around the world.
