Figuring out the many new terms confronting international students
at German-language universities can be difficult. Even if the
degree program is in English, most administrative work has to be
done in German, and the bureaucratic university jargon is a
language in and of itself. This guide aims to help international
students and researchers understand the structures and organisation
of German universities by providing in-depth descriptions of terms
and their origins, allowing for easier integration into the host
university and its culture.
Leon Loewentraut is celebrated in the art scene as an exceptional
talent. He has been conquering the art world since his earliest
youth. With dynamic forms and expressive colors, the 24-year-old
Loewentraut creates works of art that sell out within days at
international exhibitions. The first comprehensive monograph on his
life's work, shows on 320 pages his works with about 220 color
photographs. The impressively large format of 29 cm wide and 37 cm
high creates the space to explore the many details in Loewentraut's
paintings. The illustrated book is colourful and lively, with a
velvet cover in magenta on the outside and the preprinted pages on
the inside glowing orange, making it 100 percent Loewentraut! That
is the first impression one has when opening the book. The great
energy of Loewentraut's art has been captured in the production and
content of the monograph. But the illustrated book can do much
more: it offers the reader a deep insight into Loewentraut's work
and also addresses the question of what drives the young artist and
who influenced him. How does it feel to be an artist in our digital
age, and what place does classically created art have in a global
world dominated by the Internet and social media? The illustrated
book itself already has one possible approach to bringing this
discrepancy together. Using the teNeues app and your smartphone
camera, you can access exclusive video footage of Leon's work on
twelve appropriately marked pages. Those who scan the pages are
presented with sequences in the studio, conversations about art and
the art world, selected exhibition moments, and impressions from
the production of the book. Text in English and German.
