The book "ver/orten" presents a series of prominent contemporary artists from South Tyrol in their unique working environments. This allows the reader and viewer to gain insight into the creative process of art and its various levels of meaning. The artists themselves speak in the book, explaining their individual artistic journeys and work processes. For the first time, it succeeds in providing a comprehensive picture of the South Tyrolean art scene from the 1980s and 1990s, which, although geographically somewhat removed from the major cultural centers, nonetheless holds its own in international comparisons.
