In January 1971 Joseph Beuys's (*1921 – †1986) first museum exhibition outside of Germany took place at the Moderna Museet in Stockholm. The photographer Lothar Wolleh (*1930 – †1979) accompanied Beuys on his journey and photographed the installation of this exhibition. These photographs formed the basis for an artist book by Beuys and Wolleh, which became famous under the title “Unterwasserbuch�. The present publication features a new edition of the “Unterwasserbuch� as well as the rich history of the “Projekt Unterwasserbuch� in two volumes, both in a single slipcase. The books tell the story of two soul mates, while also testifying to the creative discourse of the early 1970s. Text in English and German.

The Dutch sculptor Eja Siepman van den Berg (*1943) developed her distinctive visual program in the early 1970s. Her representations of the human body in bronze and stone bear witness to her interest in a harmonious figuration and the principles of abstraction. Siepman van den Berg strives for a clarity of form that omits the merely decorative and superfluous. This also explains her broad interest in early Greek kouroi and in twentieth-century sculptors such as Constantin Brancusi and Donald Judd. This richly illustrated publication with the allure of a catalogue raisonne opens up the extensive body of work of one of the Netherlands' major sculptors.
