Die Dritte Dimension
Manfred Pernice
Published by Verlag der Buchhandlung Walther König, Köln, 2002, 286 pp. (colour & b/w ill.), 19 × 23 cm, German/English
Price: €65

Produced on the occasion of Manfred Pernice’s exhibition 1A – Dosenfeld’00, at Portikus, Frankfurt am Main, 11 March–30 April, 2000.

Since the early 1990s, Berlin-based artist Manfred Pernice has created sculptural vessels with scales, materials, and aesthetics derived from the worlds of architecture, shipping cargo, and mass packaging—these works serve as complex, open-ended meditations on the increased segmentation, containment, and, to use Pernice’s term, “canning” of objects and space. His seemingly slapdash sculptures are often juxtaposed with sketches, maquettes, photographs, text and, more recently, video to create systems of meaning.

With texts by Kasper König, Angelika Nollert, Harald Fricke, Peter Herbstreuth, Angelika Nollert, Isabel Podeschwa.

I Am Only the Housekeeper, but I Don’t Know…
Luca Lo Pinto, Olaf Nicolai
Published by Humboldt Books, Milan, 2025, 48 pp. (colour & b/w ill.), 24 × 34 cm, English
Price: €25

On the occasion of the 150th anniversary of the birth of Jože Plečnik (1872–1957), a key figure of the Modernist movement in architecture and creator of numerous buildings and monuments around the city of Ljubljana, in 2022 Luca Lo Pinto and Olaf Nicolai curated an exhibition titled I Am Only the Housekeeper, but I Don’t Know… in the Slovenian architect’s former home. The publication retraces the contemporary interventions undertaken by the curatorial duo, who invited twenty-five internationally recognised Slovenian and foreign artists, allowing them to enter the house through their own works to commemorate Plečnik’s oeuvre and place its reading into a different and more contemporary context.
