Lukas Hoffmann - Sharing Kalesija Hatje Cantz Frescoes are meant to be

Frescoes are meant to be seen from a distance

fashioning a self-contained world within the linear sequence of the book

SALT hints at many of the tropes of the landscape and picturesque tradition

looking for traces of her Huguenot ancestors

With the same image of Freud’s divan on its front and back covers
