Turner Prize winning artist, Susan Philipsz sees her works as 'sound sculptures' - the human voice, sounds and melodies are interwoven in the interplay between sound and architecture to form installations with almost spatial presence.By cutting up Hanns Eisler's music for Alain Resnais' film Night and Fog (1955) for her piece at Kunsthaus Bregenz, Philipsz reconnects to earlier works while also relating to Peter Zumthor's architecture. A further site-specific piece was created for the Jewish Cemetery in Hohenems.Kunsthaus Bregenz Director, Thomas D. Trummer discusses exhibition conception through the prism of these two approaches in an interview with the artist conducted especially for this publication.Theodor Ringborg (Bonniers Konsthall Stockholm), tackles the metaphorical aspects of Night and Fog as well as the culture of memory, distance and loss. Linda Sch�dler (University of Zurich), turns her attention to the emotional/affective dimension of Philipsz

The most comprehensive monograph to date on the groundbreaking Swiss artist and international art star, Pipilotti Rist A pioneer of experimental video art, Pipilotti Rist is celebrated for her expansive installations that bridge the spaces between fine art and popular culture, the natural world and the technological sublime. Through vivid colors, audaciously sensuous imagery, and playful sexuality, Rist's art—which ranges from single-channel videos to multilayered environments—absorbs viewers in a hyperfeminine aesthetic interlaced with deeper themes of pain, innocence, and transformation.
