In the illustrated volume, 'Boris Mikhailov. Bücher / Books', the two artist books 'Krymskaya Fotomaniya' and 'Mountains' by the Ukrainian photo artist are presented in facsimile on 128 pages each, interrupted by an eighty-page illustrated text sequence.

The collection 'Margret. Chronik einer Affäre' (Chronicle of an Affair) is an emphatically sober and at the same time obsessive, authentic documentation, shows the changes in a couple's dealings with each other and is a moral portrait of the late 1960s.

The series from 1989 is the artist's first conceptual work in which he grapples with his hometown. In keeping with the tradition of the BECHER school, his photographs show a sober documentary and sometimes humorous view of the small town in Lower Saxony.

The photographic volume 'Berlin. Wilhelmstrasse 44' by Candida HÖFER deals with an icon of 'architecture brute', which was built in the middle of the 1970s in the former GDR and is now shared by the Embassy of the Czech Republic and a Max Planck Institute
