Is there a right way of leading the wrong life? What’s the difference between culture and propaganda, art and sports?

These earnest, even deadly serious matters are contrasted with Emanuel Halpern’s whimsical and quaintly familiar-looking visual idiom in the subsequent graphic novel as well, with its bright children’sbook colors and soft outlines. One could almost convince oneself that the world isn’t doing all that badly after all. Almost. A reality teetering on the very brink of disaster can only be portrayed comically.

With a text by Emanuel Halpern in English and German

We live in a world of the greatest paradoxes, which Emanuel Halpern works into his latest book.

Paradoxer Schattenboxer follows Hunn and Altermann through an unmistakably Swiss-inspired dystopian/utopian retro-sci fi environmental crime novel in Film noir style. The dramatis personae include Al Pacone (The Boss), his gangster cronies and corrupt officials. But a nasty-piece-of-work CEO and a cruise fleet (Preperline) are a must as well, a “dolce vita doomsday cult, equipped with state-ofthe-art technology to ward off every conceivable doomsday scenario”. A forest fire poses an imminent threat and blocks access to the border area between Pappstadt and Puerto Paradisio. Against all odds, the conflagration is finally contained, and a three-day downpour brings long-awaited relief to the ill-used vegetation. A happy ending! Right?

This short story combines a wide range of different genres, characters and themes into an almost bewildering patchwork, a casual and yet close-knit tapestry interwoven with religion, politics and art history, climate change and the environment. And it asks, not just parenthetically, some big questions:

Emanuel Halpern (b. 1948, Zürich, CH) is a Zürichbased Swiss artist. He appeared in Reto Andrea Savoldelli’s modern fairy-tale movie Stella da Falla (1971) and has taught at Zürich’s F+F School for Art and Media Design. His previous, Dürrenmattinspired book Dieselbrugger Apokalypse (Nieves, 2011) also dwelt on the imminent end of the world.

This photo essay documents the transformation and hesitant attempts to refurbish the (sub) urban coastal stretches, and shows locals in their workaday lives, such as fishermen, whose earnings from swordfish hunting have long since ceased to be enough to live on. NO PONTE seeks to show how something’s absence affects us as much as its presence would. If the bridge is ever built, I won’t include any pictures of it in this series: I’ll take the last shot when they lay the foundation stone.

Over summer vacation, when we’d return to our village along with so many other families who’d emigrated abroad, our first taste of home was the arancini we ate on the ferry crossing from the Italian mainland to Sicily. We were welcomed back by the golden statue of the Madonnina, the patron saint of Messina, visible from afar on the other shore.

It wasn’t till much later in life that I began taking an interest in the coastline around Messina, which has been of great geopolitical importance since ancient times. The Italian mainland is so close here that whole generations of locals have been obsessed with the idea of building a bridge between the Calabrian and Sicilian shores. This gigantomaniac and highly controversial bridge project was announced by Mussolini during the war and fleshed out by Berlusconi during his term as prime minister. It has been repeatedly thrashed out, planned out… and then ultimately rejected. It would be the world’s longest and tallest suspension bridge—and built on sandy, earthquake-prone ground. To some, this prestigious undertaking would symbolize Sicily’s economic upswing; to others, it hangs like the sword of Damocles over the region and the whole country.

I myself was fascinated by that bridge that’s not on any map, so I began photographically documenting the coast in 2006. The result of my long-term project is a portrait of a region at a standstill, waiting in a state of indifferent, frustrated or hopeful antici-

Giuseppe Micciché (b. 1971, Winterthur, CH) is an Italian Swiss photographer based in Zürich. Edition Patrick Frey also previously published his photo essay Cento Passi (2014).

Acts of Appearance assumed its form within a village of Adivasi papier-mâché artists from the Kokna and Warli tribes in Palghar district. Further inland from Dahanu, it is one of the most impoverished districts in Maharashtra, India. Gill’s collaborator-subjects are renowned for their papier-mâché objects, including traditional sacred masks made for the yearly Bohada procession. In these pictures the artists as well as other local volunteers engage in everyday village activities while wearing new masks, made by them expressly for this body of work beginning in 2014. The new creations depict living beings with the physical characteristics of ordinary humans, commonplace animals, or valued objects. A range of scenarios and narratives, situated in both “reality” and dreamlike states, come together in the photographs, which simultaneously portray symbolic or playful representations as well as the familiar experiences of community members against the backdrop of their home and culture.

Acts of Appearance was created as a community project with the following artists: Bhagvan Dharma Kadu, Subhas Dharma Kadu, Yuvraj Bhagvan Kadu, Rahul Arvind Kakad, Madhuri Subhas Kadu, Vaibhav Subhas Kadu, Rahul Bhagvan Kadu, Makhaval Bhagvan Kadu, Mukta Subhas Kadu, Rangeeta Arvind Kakad, Sampat Raho Vazare, Gangubai Eshwar Vazare, Rajashri Eshwar Vazare, Darshana Devram Kakad, Ganesh Ganpat Lokhande, Sangeeta Ganesh Lokhande, Sangeeta Navnath Kadu, Kusum Bhagvan Kadu, Harishchandra Rama Kadu, Suvrna Harishchandra Vad, Anjana Sachin Kurbude, Sachin Sankar Kurbude, Sanjay Sakharam Vatas, Ganpat Ganga Lokhande, Rupesh Arvind Kakad, Nalini Pradip Valvi, Jyoti Sanjay Vatas, Shravan Budhya Tumbda, Saraswati Subhas Kadu, Sapna Bhagvan Kadu, Bhawna Bhagvan Kadu, Pooja Arvind Kakad, Tushar Prakash Vatas, Tushar Dinkar Vatas, Vijaya Navnath Kadu, Suraj Tukaram Vad, Nishant Tulshiram Thalkar and Nilam Sunil Marad.

Matthias Groebel’s activities in the late ’80s sound more like the plot of a cyberpunk novel than a sober account of a serious artist’s professional practice: he spent those years rummaging around in electronic waste dumps in Münster, Germany, in search of windshield wipers and photocopier motors, bicycle chains and other parts to use in constructing a three-axle painting machine capable of painting according to his specifications. Meanwhile, he was also fiddling with parabolic antennas in order to catch signals from far, far away. Over the next decade, Groebel spent countless nights changing the channels, this time rummaging around for TV stills to paint with the aid of his computer-controlled machine. The upshot is a series of paintings that anticipated technocultural developments and plumbed the collective psychological depths of satellite television and mass media. This book is the first comprehensive exposition of Groebel’s remarkable machine paintings from 1989 to 2001, along with two essays about Groebel’s unusual work.

Matthias Groebel (b. 1958, Aachen, DE) is a German artist currently based in Cologne. Since 1989, he works with photography, video and digital image processing, using various home-built and modified devices, in particular a computer-controlled painting machine since 1989. Groebel showed and published his work under a pseudonym from 2010 to 2020.

of Upper Volta, later Burkina Faso, and a proponent of Pan-Africanism. Pathé’O was heavily influenced by Sankara’s decisiveness to promote local pride and cultural heritage and from this point on he solely relied on using locally produced fabrics. His creations became a contemporary tribute to cultural heritage, history and identity. A further prominent encounter Pathé’O experienced was with Nelson Mandela, who was the first African president to chose his vibrant designs and light cotton fabrics over a Western business suit. And he was soon to be followed by other heads of states, as well as stars of the showbiz and sports, and of course Madame et Monsieur Tout-le-Monde. Pathé’O’s fabrics are his trademark and he has a lifelong experience of fusing global fashion trends with a wide range of African textiles and knowledge, hence keeping the local heritage alive and ever evolving. For the first time, this book traces the extraordinary journey of Pathé’O and his brand. The craftmanship and treasures of his creations provide a better understanding of the spectrum of fashion in West Africa, the mergers of a global present with a rich cultural heritage. The book explores topics ranging from the fashion and textile industry to labour migration, cultural heritage, politics and showbiz, and spans an arc from the past to the present.

Pathé’O, originally from Burkina Faso, is an African fashion icon in every sense of the word. Known for his collections far beyond his chosen home Ivory Coast, the designer’s visionary legacy has been influencing the aesthetic standards and experience of fashion on the African continent for over 30 years and has also led to a recent collaboration with the fashion house Dior. His distinct design aesthetics and cutting-edge approach to sustainability alongside a gift for combining cultural commitment with entrepreneurial creativity have inspired designers of all ages. For long it was common for politicians and showbiz celebrities in West African former French colonies to dress in a Western manner. In this context Pathé’O approached his work with the clear intention to raise appreciation amongst Africans for a local fashion style and industry. In the 80s, Pathé’O became friends with Thomas Sankara, president

Magnificent Obsessions Saved My Life

426 pages, 280 images 24 cm × 30 cm

Set against the backdrop of his generation’s experiences of sexual liberation and his personal experience of the deadly AIDS pandemic, this visual autobiography traces milestones in the life of the Swiss film curator Matthias Brunner. Brunner engages in an ongoing dialogue with Hollywood classics, cinéma d’auteur and contemporary art and literature, but most of all he discusses the people behind the artworks. He recounts his love­hate relationship with Swiss filmmaker Daniel Schmid and provides intimate glimpses of the late German filmmakers Rainer Werner Fassbinder and Werner Schroeter. He also recalls how he brought the films of his friends John Waters and Andy Warhol to Switzerland early on, bypassing strict censorship codes in the process. Brunner knew the light and dark sides of the Dream Factory, but was always ready and willing to succumb yet again to its Imitation of Life, as Douglas Sirk titled one of his great melodramas and whose estate Brunner now administers. Altogether, this autobiography testifies to Brunner’s consistent desire to embrace and champion the arts, and his generous, tireless will to share his obsessions with others.

‘The whole package is amazing, a map of social history, a list of the movies (objectively and in his own life), a wonderful homage to the love of his life, the art dealer Thomas Ammann, a touching portrait of Matthias Brunner, a man who has triumphed over all the difficult moments of his life and has done justice to all the glorious moments.’

Matthias ‘This’ Brunner (b. 1945, Zürich) ran arthouse cinemas in Zürich for over thirty-five years, curated screenings at Art Basel and Art Basel Miami Beach for over twenty years and has attended over 250 film festivals over the past sixty years, from Berlin to Cannes, Locarno, Venice, Zürich and way out in LA. He has received numerous awards for his work, including the French title of Officier des Arts et des Lettres

Walter Grab turned to Surrealism after traveling to Paris in the late 1940s. In 1950, heavily influenced by the visual worlds of Giorgio de Chirico, Salvador Dalí, André Masson and René Magritte, he founded “Phoenix”, a group of German and Austrian artists along with Swiss Surrealists Kurt Seligmann, Otto Tschumi and Ernst Maass. In the wake of the international resurgence of Surrealism, which had been presumed dead and consigned to the annals of art history, Grab soon gained recognition in Switzerland (especially Zürich) and Germany. In 1965 Walter Grab and Meret Oppenheim represented Switzerland in the Surrealismo e arte fantástica show at the 8th São Paulo Biennial. Grab’s pictorial idiom and idiosyncratic style and technique are unmistakable: his constructive geometric elements are interlocked with figurative and narrative elements to form surreal scenes resembling stage sets. To show life in all its starkest contrasts was the Surrealist credo to which Grab, too, clearly subscribed. He became known as an enfant terrible of the art world, moreover, for his melancholy, irascible and addictive personality.

In addition to providing an unprecedented overview of Walter Grab’s oeuvre, this catalog also presents a wide range of different angles on his art, including subjective looks at individual works, art history essays and an associative correspondence using the cadavre exquis technique that was so dear to the Surrealists.

Julia Schallberger (b. 1986) has been working at the Aargauer Kunsthaus Aarau since 2015. She also works as a freelance curator and author for exhibitions, literary periodicals and publications.

Fields of Sight is a unique collaboration between photographer Gauri Gill and renowned Warli artist Rajesh Vangad. The series began in early 2013 in Ganjad, Dahanu, an Adivasi village in coastal Maharashtra, India. A new visual language emerged symbiotically from Gill’s initial experiences of photographing the landscape. Looking at her contact sheets, she perceived that although the camera was capturing the distinct ‘chameleon-like’ skin of the landscape, it was missing vital aspects of what was not apparent to the eye, yet was vividly relayed in the great mythical and experiential stories narrated to her by Vangad. The photographs by Gill, inscribed by drawings by Vangad, reconfigure the photographic site both formally as well as conceptually, to arrive at new documents of multiple truths and knowledge systems. In the act of viewing the landscape through the eyes of Vangad, Gill rekindles the need to challenge the way we see things today, what our eyes capture and what may elude them. ‘ As though one were photographing an old home, and the resident of the house came out, and began to speak’.

Gauri Gill (b. 1970, Chandigarh, India) is a NewDelhi based photographer. Various ongoing projects highlight her sustained belief in collaboration and ‘active listening’, and in using photography as a memory practice. Gill’s work addresses the Indian identity markers of caste, class and community as determinants of mobility and social behaviour; in it there is empathy, surprise, and a human concern over issues of survival. She has exhibited within India and internationally including the 58th Venice Biennale, MoMA PS1, New York, Documenta 14, Athens and Kassel, Kochi Biennale 2016 and the Smithsonian Institution, Washington. Her work is in the collections of prominent institutions worldwide, and in 2011 she was awarded the Grange Prize, Canada’s foremost award for photography. In 2012, Gill published the book Balika Mela with Edition Patrick Frey.

Rajesh Vangad (b. 1975, Ganjad, India) is a bearer of the Warli style of painting, a form of painting belonging to the indigenous Warli people. He learned the art at a young age from his mother, Ladhki Devi; and later from masters like Jivya Soma Mashe. He has painted notable murals at the Craft Museum, New Delhi, the Tata Memorial Hospital, Mumbai and the T2 Terminal at the International Airport in Mumbai. Vangad has published three books: My Gandhi Story (Tulika Books), Kabir Saamagri (as part of the Kabir Project) and The Indian Crafts Journey, as well as a map of Maharashtra (Dastkaar Haat Samiti). His work has been exhibited across India as well as internationally, and the collaborative series made along with the photographer Gauri Gill called Fields of Sight, has been included in exhibitions around the world, including Documenta 14, Kassel; the 7th Moscow Biennale, and Prospect 4, New Orleans.

Snow-clad marble sculptures of cactuses, pencil sketches of corals and renderings of leaf shapes seemingly suspended in mid-air, interspersed with grids of neon-colored sculptures and alarming newspaper headlines warning of the “ghastly” climate apocalypse that lies in store for us: This artist's book explores the diverse reference system of forms and materials, plants, animals and other subjects out of which Claudia Comte develops her biomorphic sculptures. While cactuses are well adapted to arid conditions, coral reefs, which form bio-diverse ecosystems at the bottom of the marine food chain, are wasting away due to the warming and acidification of the ocean. Leaves, on the other hand, represent photosynthesis, the energyconverting process that gives off oxygen. Comte’s supernatural fusion of cactus, coral and leaf draws connections between aspects of the desert, ocean, and forest through various processes of material metamorphosis.

The book begins with an index of Comte’s wooden sculptures, on which she confers first-name monikers, as if they were her familiars. Based on sketches, they are carved in wood or executed in marble with the aid of digital media. So marble, a petrified representation of the sea, meets wood, a place of storage for natural terrestrial processes and a constant source of oxygen.

The book’s focus is on our relationship to nature and the havoc we’ve wrought on our environment, which are the principal themes of the artist's practice. Prophecies of doom culled from newspaper articles sound the alarm about the looming climate emergency, for coral reefs aren’t the only critically endangered biomes.

After Nature. Cacti, Corals and Leaves

Claudia Comte (b. 1983, Grancy, CH) lives and works in Basel. As an internationally renowned artist, her work is widely featured in solo and group exhibitions.

The youth uprising, now simply called “The Sixties,” was fed by one of the greatest booms in publishing history. The Underground Press Syndicate (UPS) began as a loose confederation of five papers in 1966, and within a few years swelled to over 500 across the world, reaching millions of readers. They “spread like weed,” said the UPS director, weed-dealer, and eventual founder of High Times, Tom Forcade. The metaphor was apt: the UPS spurred the legalization movement, and weed became its totem.

Weed was so pervasive it became a helpful means for government agencies to crack down on the UPS. Weed came to emblematize activist groups, and added a touch of flair to the mastheads of UPS titles. Weed permeated UPS pages, with gaps in text crammed with weed-inspired “spot illustratios”.

Heads Together collects these drawings, shining a light on lesser-known names in the stoner-art canon, and many who weren’t names at all, as no signature was attached. It also compiles guides for growing weed from the period that were treated like contraband by the CIA. Activist-oriented, psychedelic rolling papers are showcased too.

As pot now fast-tracks toward legalization in the U.S. and beyond, its once incendiary status is brought into odd relief. Pot’s profiteers of the corpo-

rate market today do not reflect those who fought for legalization, or the Black and Latino populations strategically criminalized for pot well before hippies were targeted, and long after.

The art in this book speaks to a time when pot was smoked with optimism, as something potentially good for society and people, capable of activating profound transformation in the face of corrupt and powerful forces.

Sonja Huwiler and Elena Nierlich have been running the Olé-Olé Bar together for ten years now, during which they’ve also opened Charlatan RestoDisco, a restaurant cum nightclub, right next door. The book’s editor is journalist and documentary filmmaker Thomas Haemmerli, who also edited Mexican photographer Jesús León’s Vida for Edition Patrick Frey in 2018.

The Olé-Olé Bar is a veritable institution in Zürich. Situated on Langstrasse, the main drag of the city’s red-light district, the bar has been a haven for those who crave drink, convivial company and carousing ever since it opened back in 1966. This book features some funny anecdotes from the bar told by regulars like writers and journalists Lara Stoll, Benjamin von Stuckrad-Barre, Yvonne Eisenring and Dominique Feusi, as well as satirical sketches of what goes down there by Olé-Olé friends like Yello frontman Dieter Meier and documentary filmmaker Thomas Haemmerli. And the beating heart of this book is a selection of facsimiled extracts from the “Barbie Book”, the logs kept by the female crew who’ve been running the joint for ten years now:

Every night they jot down who was there, what got left behind, stolen or damaged, whether there was any dancing, heavy flirting, or even kissing, cuddling and canoodling on the premises. And how things are going at this little hot spot for late-night revelry.

Designed by Jonas Voegeli/Kerstin Landis and richly illustrated with photos and telltale documents from the inner life of the bar, Die OléOlé-Bar. Geschichten aus dem Barbiebuch is a delightful slice of Zürich night life and a look at the recent history of its local customs.

FUTURE is a series of five or six books by the artist duo Taiyo Onorato & Nico Krebs to be published by Edition Patrick Frey successively over the next few years. The exact subject-matter and timing of the publications are not planned far in advance. In fact, the idea is to publish relatively quickly so as to react promptly to recent events or current sensibilities.

After their first book about the future and memory, the second installment in the duo’s FUTURE series is about a place, or rather an entire realm, that literally surrounds us and yet remains as distant and alien to us as outer space: the watery world far below the surface of the sea.

Only through the use of elaborate technology are we able to dive ever deeper and explore these uncharted waters. But exploration inevitably leads to exploitation, and we’re liable to destroy this underwater world before we even get a close look at it, let alone begin to understand it.

The depths of the sea have always kindled human imagination, for this is a realm in which anything seems possible, a vast screen onto which we project all sorts of bizarre notions and phantasmagorical visions. The deep sea obeys other laws, other rules, and more and more evidence suggests we might even find our origins there—and, in its storied layers of sediment, our ultimate end.

Using a wide range of cutting-edge photographic tools and inventions, Taiyo Onorato & Nico Krebs explore this uncharted world and create visual scenarios that inextricably fuse scientific research and science fiction.

The Order of Things presents about a hundred analog photographs of landscaped gardens around houses and estates in the Swiss Canton of Valais and in Romandy, the western, French-speaking part of Switzerland. Nicolas Faure explores the “order of things” in his shots of lush ornamental plants and hedges as well as boundary walls and fences that bespeak a desire for privacy within the confines of a verdant semi-secluded idyll. Usually you can only spot them from afar: these ornamental plants, slightly concealed, usually behind delicate latticework and fences, and every now and then striving to break away from the changes in the built environment, reaching out over and around the fences, sometimes almost menacingly, sometimes holding out a silent promise that behind all that back-to-back terraced housing might still lie some unspoiled wilderness, maybe even the great wide world. Then again, maybe not: maybe there’s nothing behind it but more Swiss suburbia. Faure renders this “order of things” in painstakingly composed visual hierarchies reflecting the homeowners’ will to assert their proprietary power, to shape their grounds, their personal turf, as they see fit. Everything has its place. These precisely placed plants, scrupulously “trained” to grow just the right way and smoothly woven into the suburban fabric, epitomize the Swiss mentality, as well as the technological and cultural changes which, since the late 1950s, have transformed Switzerland into a vast suburban patchwork.

Nicolas Faure (b. 1949, Geneva, CH) apprenticed as a goldsmith in Geneva from 1968–1971 before traveling for several years to the Middle and Far East where he took his first photographs. Between 1975 and 1980 he lived in New York as a goldsmith and photographer. Faure was a teacher of photography at the University of Geneva, 1981–1983, and since 2001 at the Ecole Cantonale d’Art Lausanne ECAL. His work includes extensive photo series on Swiss highways 1994–1998, a collaboration with Time Life Books, and he publishes in magazines such as GEO, Actuel, and L’lllustré. Faure’s fields of work include street photography, development of the Alpine landscape, design of public space, transportation infrastructure. He received federal grants in 1980, 1986, 1988; and the Kodak Prize in 1992.
