“Kunst.Werk.Buch” designates a kind of world interior space and means that there is also a universe inside – just of the knowledge in the book. Every bird and\/or thought that flies moves equally through a world outer space as well as through a world inner space, the universe book.<\/p>\n
The picture flow of the artist Dagmar Varady shows libraries and workplaces of “researchers in the broadest sense”. A selection of 23 photographs in Leporello – format conveys the horizon of thought of the knowledge space behind the visual research on the respective genius loci. “I’m interested in the look behind the scenes, the place where the work is created,” says Varady. Material that is quite divergent in content, essays and glossaries on the theme of reflecting on individual ways of working to produce knowledge come together in a companion publication to form a common text. The multiplicity of intellectual connections-between architecture, science, art, research, commercial history, garden history, art book collection, and cultural management-makes thinking both outward and inwardly permeable. As a work of art and as a work of science, it finds its place in the book. Considering it as an artistic work, it is possible to approach this book like an exhibition.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
The book, which on the wall is a work of art, taken in the hand becomes the catalog of its own exhibition – and regardless of these options is simply a book.<\/p>\n
