It's All About Freedom presents a comprehensive cross-section
through nine decades of Tomi Ungerer's artistic work for the first
time-from drawings from the nineteen-thirties to objects from the
two thousand-tens. The exhibits selected shed new light on
Ungerer's oeuvre by making it possible to comprehend the artistic
dimension of the political and stylistic lines and breaks in his
oeuvre as a 'freewheeling artist'. His passion for experimenting
across genres and the interplay between drawing, collage, and
assemblage through which he searched for identity and humanity is
thus shown in his work again and again. Developed by the
Deichtorhallen Hamburg / Sammlung Falckenberg in cooperation with
the Tomi Ungerer Estate and the Musee Tomi Ungerer in Strasbourg,
the volume brings together contributions on Tomi Ungerer's life's
work by Thomas David, Belinda Grace Gardner, Aria Ungerer, and
Therese Willer, with a foreword by Dirk Luckow and Harald
Falckenberg.

Charlotte March was one of the leading international fashion
photographers from the 1960s to the 1980s. The major retrospective
at Deichtorhallen Hamburg lays the foundation for the rediscovery
of the iconic photographer's oeuvre and offers a comprehensive
overview of all of her creative periods for the first time. From
her hitherto little-known early work, relating to the "Humanist
Photography" movement, that reveals her sensitive eye for the
margins of society in post-war Hamburg, took her to wholly
unglamorous places, to her journeys to Italy in the 1960s, as well
as her highly influential fashion and advertising photography. The
narrative of her imagery for magazines such as twen, Stern,
Harper's Bazaar, Vanity Fair, Elle, and Vogue reveals an
emancipatory attitude and evoke the notion of a new lifestyle and
the social upheaval of the 1960s. The exhibition and catalog
illuminate March's multifaceted work and attest to her status as
one of the most important female photographers of the second half
of the 20th century.
A characteristic of 20th- and 21st-century artistic production is
that casual acquaintances and close intimates, friends, lovers, or
sometimes even rivals come together to work collaboratively on the
realization of a single work of art. Amitie et creativites
collectives is focused on the genesis of these works and explores
the conditions that contributed to the concentration and liberation
of these creative energies. Beginning with the groundbreaking
socio-cultural upheaval of the 19th century, the publication
examines for the first time a variety of works of diverse genres
and techniques from different time periods. Featuring works by
Salvador Dali and Luis Bunuel, Francis Picabia and Rene Clair, Jean
Tinguely and Yves Klein, William Burroughs and Brion Gysin, Jenny
Holzer and Lady Pink; and many more, this publication. brings
together more than one hundred works.
Performance artist, sculptor, prankster, restauranteur, farmer,
professional poker player and frontman of the 1980s Swiss
electronic pop duo Yello, Dieter Meier (born 1945) brings a
contagious sense of fun and lightness to all of his diverse
activities. At Documenta 5, in 1972, Meier installed a
commemorative plaque at the Kassel train station that read: "On 23
March 1994, from 3 to 4 pm, Dieter Meier will stand on this
plaque." He honored the promise, and in the interim produced enough
bodies of work for at least five artists: ephemeral junk
sculptures, street performances, films and videos, books and, most
famously, music, as one half of Yello. With international top ten
singles such as "The Race" and "Oh Yeah," Yello has been one of the
most influential and widely sampled electronica groups of the
1980s. This spectacular monograph celebrates Meier's many lives,
from the late 1960s to the present, and includes a DVD of his early
films, plus Yello music videos.
