Skiing connects people. Based on this motto, graphic designer Peter Erlach had an idea in 2022: a quartet and mini travel guide presenting 32 legendary ski resorts and slopes, accompanied by the most important facts and figures.

The selection of the 32 ski resorts is based both on the personal memories of the author, who grew up skiing in Austria, and on the destinations that are still on his wish list. Each ski area is presented on a map with a meaningful photo and all the important key data. This makes it easy to discover 32 of the most

beautiful and spectacular ski areas. Accompanying it there is still another booklet, which deals still more in detail with the areas.a special attention lies also on the quality of the photos. All photographers are listed with their name and website, so you can also discover other impressive winter sports photographs.

Born in Germany, she started her career as a hairstylist and makeup artist before discovering the world of analog photography in 2016. From the beginning, her main topic was clear: beautiful women. With passion and a love for travel, she found women from all over the world who were willing to show themselves in front of her camera. What started as a hobby slowly developed into a bigger vision.

Today, Sarah focuses mainly on her project "sarahlikesprettygirls". In addition to her publications on social media, with a wide reach and awareness, she now also collaborates with galleries and other artists around the world.

For her second photo book, she chose Mexico City as the setting. The city fascinated her with its colors, its energy and its history and architecture. There she met and took portraits of numerous women - locals and travelers alike. Each photograph was captured on 35mm film, creating an "analog imperfection" that, in addition to its natural aesthetic, creates a special closeness to the women photographed.

In a world of nude photography dominated by men, Sarah Zak's work breaks down stereotypes and creates a space for a unique beauty and power in women. Immerse yourself in this special collaboration and experience the sensual and inspiring world of female nude photography.

Sarah Zak says about her photographs: “Remember, the term ´pretty’s what you see and feel. It comes from within.“

So this book really has it all. Thomas Kellner's 34th monograph is probably the most comprehensive content and artistic treatment of the history of chapel schools that has been published to date. The book embeds itself in Kellner's cultural-historical Siegerland works.

"Thomas Kellner's complex of works invites us to look with extraordinary perspective on architectural details, on the overall form, the dimensional relationships and proportions of the photographic reformulation, interest for the efforts and the importance of the education in rural areas, which is the cultural background, the "humus" of the architectural phenomenon of chapel school."

1737 baute man im Netphener Stadtteil Werthenbach eine Kapellenschule. Die Lehrpläne richteten sich nach der katholischen Ansicht der biblischen Geschichte des Neuen und Alten Testaments.

In 1737, a chapel school was built in Werthenbach in the Netphen Township. The syllabi were guided by the Catholic view of New and Old Testament biblical history. The chapel school, named after St.  Mary Magdalene, was expanded in 1818 to create more space. The building was a school until 1965 when it was torn down. The chapel school was faithfully restored to its original state, receiving a

Rock music, or rock for short, serves as a generic term for music styles that have emerged since the late 1960s from the mixing of rock 'n' roll of the late 1950s and early 1960s with other styles of music such as B. beat music and blues have developed. Many genres within rock music are identified with individual youth cultures.

Parallel to the emancipation of the long-playing record from the single, a completely new treatment of the record sleeves developed from the mid-1960s, which had never existed before in any music genre. An art form of its own emerged that tolerated no restrictions whatsoever and for which Klaus Voormann and Peter Blake for the Beatles, Storm Thorgerson for Pink Floyd, AC/ DC, Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd as well as Doug Johnson for Tina Turner or Judas Priest deserved credit made. In this context, it also became common to design a separate band logo for each band.

For this tear-off calendar, we've selected 365 of the most iconic rock album covers of the last six decades. A collection that should not be missing in any collection! And the hit: with the printed SPOTIFY codes, every album can of course be played anywhere and immediately.

Flamboyant Flowers is no ordinary 365 flower tear-off calendar. Inspired by pioneers such as Karl Blossfeldt, the "snowflakes" photographer Wilson Bentley and the Japanese floral artist Makota Azuma and Andy Wahrhol, the calendar is based on over 10,000 photos of flowers, most of which are cultivated by the family itself. Flamboyant Flowers reminds us that floral beauty is above all something natural, but also ephemeral. The diversity of the many flamboyant images reveals rarely seen details full of "architectural" sophistication and filigree splendour.

As part of a personal quest, director Hermann Vaske explored the genius behind the world’s most intriguing artists and thinkers for over 30 years. His interview partners include over 1000 luminaries, among them Academy Award and Nobel Prize winners, from the fields of visual art, music, acting, philosophy, politics, business and science, posing the question: “Why are you creative?”

All of the participants also created an artefact for the project—some very personal, some bizarre. Vaske has exhibited these artefacts with considerable success in Europe. Exhibitions included the Museum of Communication in Berlin and the Espace Miramar in Cannes as part of the Cannes Film Festival.

Now, 100 of the most interesting, fascinating answers are compiled in this book.

"Iconographic images from Berlin are well known and in different tonalities: Sarah Eick now succeeds in the great feat that still demands admiration even from Urberliner:innen who have seen a great many photographs of their hometown: her photos undoubtedly reproduce Berlin motifs, but at the same time they are works of a great, translocal, abstract-poetic quality.

Peculiarly contextless, almost like UFOs, the familiar buildings and city views appear. Without any form of historicizing or nostalgic pathos, Eick gives them great dignity. Even a snack booth looks sublime in her work.
