    An intercultural artistic narrative between Germany and Egypt. In her works, Barbara Armbruster (b. in Bad Waldsee, lives and works in Stuttgart) deals with cultural and social spaces, structures, and identities. Influenced by many years of residence in the North African metropolis of Cairo, Armbruster's diverse works are points of relationship between two completely different cultural spaces. In her paintings, drawings, photographs, installations, and performative videos, the artist pursues a cross-cultural approach that tells of her time in Egypt and Germany on both a documentary and personal level. The monograph provides fascinating insight into Armbruster's continuously developed language of expression between Arabic calligraphy, stylized ornamentation, and the photographic staging of everyday architecture. With a foreword by Clemens Ottnad and contributions by Salwa Bakr, Iris Dressler, Marianne Eigenheer, Eva-Marina Froitzheim, Andreas Gabelmann, José F. A. Oliver, Vivien Sigmund, and Stefanie Stegmann. Barbara Armbruster studied Graphic Art at the State Academy of Fine Arts in Stuttgart, where she later held a teaching position. Her works have been widely exhibited at, among others, the Goethe-Institut in Cairo, the Landesmuseum Württemberg in Stuttgart, and the Kunstverein Freiburg.

    Tracing the Wear of the Life of Labor. The visual art of Jan Muche (b. 1975, Herford; lives and works in Berlin) revolves around forms that bring to mind structural steelwork, giant industrial installation components, or scaffolding. His constructivist-abstract paintings and sculptures look back on steel as a symbol of industrialization and the working class, which featured in unflappably cheerful and adulatory depictions that were characteristic of the twentieth century's ideologies--Communism, Stalinism, National Socialism, actually existing Socialism. Muche's roughhewn aesthetic combines proletarian charm with the spirit of onward and upward, taking the beholder to regions not untinged by dissonance. This book, supported by the Leinemann-Stiftung für Bildung und Kunst, brings his reflections on the significance of work and the impact of digital technology on physical toil as well as his engagement with yesteryear's "heroes of labor" into focus. Jan Muche trained as lithographer and studied with Karl Horst Hödicke at the Hochschule der Künste Berlin.

    Breaking the Mold of Convention. Presenting installations, sculptures, objects, and paintings from Mexico, Cuba, West Africa, Israel, Bulgaria, Russia, South Korea, and Japan, rounded out by extraordinary works from the U.S. and Europe, this selection from the Dohmen Collection features artists from countries that did not typically register on "Western" art radars until fifteen years ago. It was the seminal documenta 11 (2002), curated by a team led by Okwui Enwezor, that ushered in a departure from the contemporary art world's entrenched geopolitical ideas. This book showcases a treasure that has long been ahead of its time yet did not attract public attention: the private collection of Werner Dohmen, a physician in Aachen. It includes works by Mariana Castillo Deball, Wim Delvoye, Jimmie Durham, Diango Hernández, Rodney McMillian, Pavel Pepperstein, Nora Turato, Haegue Yang, and other artists who continue to provoke audiences, ask probing questions, and prompt fresh thinking.

    The Ideal of Simplicity, Clarity, and Timelessness. To make his photographs, Hannes Norberg (b. 1969, Worms; lives and works in Du¨sseldorf) constructs artificial spaces that integrate elements of painting, drawing, collage, and sculpture. Rather than reproducing selected details of an existing reality, his works make empty space and the play of light and shadow their point of departure. In his most recent pieces, the artist has focused on samples of typography that he collected on his travels and in numerous libraries all over the world and subjected to graphical redaction. Captured in natural light in his studio, his pictures showcase the quiet beauty of writing and paper, while their landscape-like aura gestures toward their place of origin. Designed by the artist himself, the book marks the public première of a selection of twenty-seven new photographs. Hannes Norberg studied fine arts at the Kunstakademie Du¨sseldorf and was an artist-in-residence in Paris, New York, Florence, São Paulo, Xiamen, and Seoul.

    The world's most important exhibition of Urban Art--presented for the fifth time in 2019. Its themes are the city and urban lifestyle; its canvases are walls, doors, or windows; its artists are cosmopolitan. Since the turn of the millennium, Urban Art has developed out of the non-commercial, often illegal art forms of graffiti and street art. Although it makes use of the same stylistic means--spraying, tagging, the deliberate inclusion of drips, the use of graffiti scripts, etc.--it transports these as commissioned works into the legal space of the museum, gallery, or architecture. The Urban Art! Biennial at the World Cultural Heritage Site Völklinger Hütte is the largest international exhibition of its kind. Fifty individual works and twenty-five installations by one hundred artists shed light on the latest developments and positions from Western metropolises, as well as from current hot spots around the globe.
