Book excerpt: Due to the necessity of having to spend the Coronavirus pandemic in self-isolation, the artist Max Siedentopf turned his own home upside down and captured the results with his camera. He piled cans into sculptural towers, stitched together haute-couture clothes, crafted monsters and traps, and invented crazy alternatives to toilet paper. But that wasn't all: he also published all of his actions on Instagram and invited followers around the world to copy his various mottos. This handy survival guide consists of different chapters that shed an ironic light upon the process of getting by at home alone, whether one has chosen to isolate or has been ordered to. From "invent a new meal," to "make a painting using toothbrush," to "balance all your beauty products," it's all there. The best pictures from the series, which now numbers more than one thousand photos, are collected here. An effective way to combat boredom whenever. ​MAX SIEDENTOPF (*1991 in Windhoek, Namibia)—artist, photographer, video director, freelance art director—was the creative director for the KesselsKramer agency from 2013 to 2020. He is the founder of the quarterly art magazine Ordinary.

This book was released on 2024-04-16 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Covid-19 crisis and the designed interventions that the authors have catalogued in this book prove definitively that design does care. The authors documented this as it evolved every day from the 1st January 2020 to 31st May 2020 inclusive. Then they looked at all of this care and caring from the point of view of design and, by the sheer volume of design interventions they have documented, illustrate that design is good in a crisis. What the Covid-19 pandemic illustrated is that for the first time in modern history, capital was totally irrelevant. Money could not save your life. Only design could. Rapidly designed masks, shelters, hospitals, instructional posters, infographics, dashboards, respirators, sanitisers, virtual and local communities emerged to save us. From January 2020, design became king. The Covid-19 global pandemic presented an ontological reality; design is more than margins or profit. In fact, design became extremely valuable when it stopped concentrating on those things and started to care about peoples’ lives. This brief episode in history is still repositioning the status of design and reconfiguring its signifier from consumption to care. The contents of this book cover the outbreak, lockdown, and the beginning of the reopening in the UK. In between, the book functions as a history of pandemic crisis design interventions. As such it is a “research-in-the-moment project” where we have illustrated our thoughts and insights in tables, charts and diagrams. We have accepted all design interventions as valid and given them the same role and status by presenting each of them in a standard format. No curation. No selection. No position. The task of critical analysis must follow – perhaps by us, certainly by others.

Book excerpt: The mountains around Lech am Arlberg are the focus ofWalter Niedermayr's latest photo series, realized over aperiod of two years. Every winter blankets of snow unifythe landscape, making vegetation and topographical detailsdisappear; the only structures left are those that createthe ideal conditions for winter sports. In contrast, summerbrings a completely different landscape to light. Over thecourse of each year Niedermayr took his camera to the sameplaces in order to express the atmosphere and the changesin landscape. The aesthetic of these minimalist, yetvivid images draws the viewer's attention, but it's only uponcloser observation that one notices disruptions and shifts,even a certain kind of irony, all of which perhaps challengeone to contemplate the possible different perspectivesof nature, and of how landscape is dealt with.

Book excerpt: Paintings League versucht, die uralte Frage zu beantworten: "Wie kann man Kunst für Menschen machen, die normalerweise keine Kunst mögen?" Nach vielen Untersuchungen kam der Künstler Max Siedentopf zu dem Schluss, dass Menschen, die Museen und Galerien meiden, oft dieselben sind, die ihre Zeit lieber mit Fußballgucken verbringen würden. Wenn es mit Sicherheit mehr Fußball- als Kunstfans gibt, warum sollte man sich dann nicht auf dieses neu gewonnene Publikum einstellen? Hier versuchte Siedentopf die Lösung zu finden, indem er eine Reihe von Gemälden schuf, die sowohl den kritischsten Kunstliebhaber als auch den ernsthaftesten Fußballfanatiker erfreuen würden. Paintings League ist eine Hommage an ikonische Fußballmannschaften wie den FC Bayern München, Inter Mailand, den FC Chelsea, Manchester United und den FC Barcelona, indem die ikonischen Trikots der Mannschaften in Acryl auf Leinwand gemalt werden. Kunstliebhaber werden den minimalistischen, abstrakten Ansatz und die Pinselstriche der Gemälde zu schätzen wissen, während Fußballfans sich an den Farben ihrer Lieblingsmannschaft erfreuen können. Genau wie beim Fußball funktionieren die Gemälde wie eine Liga. Jedes Gemälde repräsentiert eine unterschiedliche Gruppe von Menschen durch ihre Interessen, Leidenschaften und Hintergründe und versucht letztendlich, der Champion der Paintings League zu sein.

Book excerpt: Nathan Peter lets the ornament balance on the thin line between the figurative and the abstract. His still lifes are confronted with repetitive forms or reveal a recurring pattern. Sometimes the meandering movement seems to take up the entire pictorial space. But more than just color and form are integrated into these repetitive rows. The canvas itself becomes the most strongly expressive figure. It becomes permeable, creating folds or fluidly taking in the space, which is cut into strips like a sophisticated network. Thus, Peter creates an oeuvre of abstract objects and painted installations that dissolve the boundaries between genres with virtuosity. This publication is the first to offer a comprehensive view of the artist's fascinating work.

Dieser Frage wird derzeit mit großem Interesse aus unterschiedlichen Perspektiven nachgegangen. Dieser Sammelband vereint Erkenntnisse aus Psychologie, Neurowissenschaften, Mathematikdidaktik, (Psycho-)Linguistik und Mehrsprachigkeitsforschung. Der interdisziplinäre Ansatz bietet einen umfassenden Blick auf den aktuellen Forschungsstand, dargestellt von national und international renommierten Forschenden. Das Buch gliedert sich in drei Teile. Der erste Teil „Modelle und Theorien“ fasst theoretische Überlegungen zusammen und stellt Strukturen für Forschung und Praxis bereit. Dieser Teil dient dazu, den Grundstein für die anderen Teile sowie für zukünftige Forschung zu legen. Der zweite Teil „Kindergartenalter“ sowie der dritte Teil „Grundschulalter“ decken empirische Befunde über die Korrelation zwischen Sprache und mathematischem Lernen in der jeweiligen Altersgruppe ab. Ein besonderer Fokus liegt hierbei auf dem Aspekt der Mehrsprachigkeit. Damit bietet dieser Sammelband eine große Bandbreite fachspezifischen Wissens für Bildungswissenschaftler*innen, Lehramtsstudierende, Psycholog*innen und Forschende zur Mehrsprachigkeit.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a detailed introduction to how the Lander (the 16 states of Germany) function not only within the country itself but also within the wider context of European political affairs. Some knowledge of the role of the Lander is essential to an understanding of the political system as well as of German federalism. This book traces the origin of the Lander. It looks at their place in the constitutional order of the country and the political and administrative system. Their organization and administration are fully covered, as is their financing. Parties and elections in the Lander and the controversial roles of parliaments and deputies are also examined.
