Statements about art and artists, as well as graphic design, art studies, the art of poster making, theater work, and the issue of city and society. Unmistakably rooted in Halle, it is the cosmopolitan attitude of the author, his critical view of society, and his analytical yet empathetic perspective on the artists that lend weight to the texts beyond the concrete nature of the statements. The documentation of these texts is of significant artistic and historical value, not least due to the abundance of thoughts and the diversity of the artists addressed.
