To mark the 200th anniversary of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), its history is being told through 100 selected objects. Proposals from the entire institute were submitted in response to a "Call for Objects." The curators Klaus Nippert and Andrea Stengel provide historical classifications of the objects with regard to their role in research, teaching, and development. The catalogue shows numerous new images of the objects, photographed by Jonas Zilius and Amadeus Bramsiepe, and mediates between their current appearance and the historical perspectives raised. In the design, Christoph Engel interweaves text and image in a special form that invites you to take a visual stroll.Klaus Nippert studied history and philology, and has a doctorate in early modernism. In 2002, he became head of the University Archive Karlsruhe, since 2009 the KIT Archive. He has published in the fields of archival, historical, and literary studies.

This book is the first major study of Edita Schuberts art published outside Croatia. Edita Schuberts body of work is strikingly diverse, spanning pioneering explorations of natural ecology in the 1970s to bold paintings in the spirit of the transavantgarde in the 1980s. She also created performance art on the streets of Dubrovnik and created installations that invited viewers into her world. Her later worksself-portraits of various kindsoffer profound meditations on memory, identity, and mortal- ity. Working in her studio in the Institute of Anatomy in Zagreb, she once compared her art with the practice of dissection, a precise and purposeful science which reveals the hidden territories of the human body. Often her subject was herself. The breadth of her artistic output seems to anticipate the "post-medium" condition of contemporary art. Yet when viewed together, strong lines of connection and continuity emerge, revealing a deeply intimate and single-minded vision of art.Edita Schubert (19472001) was an exceptionally prolific and inventive artist, active from the early 1970s until her untimely death at the age of 54 in 2001. A significant figure in Croatian and Yugoslav art, she exhibited at the Venice Biennale and the Biennale of Sydney and in galleries in Austria and the US, as well as frequently throughout Yugoslavia. Yet today, her art remains relatively little known.

Magdalena Abakanowicz (19302017) is known for her iconic installations that explored the relationship between humanity and nature, as well as the strength of the collective versus the individual. Today the power of her art, like predications from the past, are rivetingly real. This publication offers rich intellectual insight into the relevance of this Polish artist to the threatened presenta time in which geopolitical shifts between East and West and predictions of the Club of Rome (1972) and climate scientists are becoming a worldwide reality. And here Abakanowiczs vision on nature and the human condition is explored in a uniquely inspired way: by engaging seven artists/collaboratives to reflect in deeply personal ways on their art through dialogues with historians, philosophers, and other thinkers. This "counterpoint" launches discussion around the human condition in a post-humanist time, collective identity, trauma, climate change, unending destruction of the planet, and more. Finally, the uncommon approach of this show and book demonstrates how the elder artists art and life is a lens through which not only these artists but we can reconsider our place in the world.Magdalena Abakanowicz (19302017) is known for her iconic installations that explored the relationship between humanity and nature, as well as the strength of the collective versus the individual.
