Kerber Verlag Matthias Mansen Triest oder die Gotter
Matthias Mansen (b. 1958) is one of contemporary art''s most influential woodcut artists. With his monumental colour woodcuts, which consist of several printing blocks and are often printed in overlays and ever-new states, Mansen has significantly advanced the art of woodcutting and brought new opportunities for expression to the technique.The major retrospective at the Gottorf Castle Museum of Art and Cultural History and the Kunstmuseum Singen shows works spanning four decades. The centrepiece is Mansen's most recent series Trieste oder die Götter (Trieste or The Gods), in which Mansen focuses on the motif of bathers, a subject matter that has recurred throughout art history. For him, their poses and gestures open up a world of associations with ancient Greek and Roman sculptures, which he explores in his works.Text in English and German.

Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden Pandemieresilienz: Empirische Befunde zur Bewältigung der sozialen Folgen der Corona-Krise
Um eine tragfähige gesellschaftliche und individuelle Resilienz im Umgang mit Krisen wie der Corona-Pandemie zu entwickeln, ist es wesentlich, gemeinsam bewegliche Regelungen in Bezug auf gemeinsame Angelegenheiten zu bestimmen. Die in dieser Studie empirisch nachgezeichneten Reaktionen auf subjektive, ökonomische und regionale Veränderungen während der Pandemie werden in Bezug zu den lebensweltlich-kulturellen Orientierungen der BewohnerInnen gebracht. An Gemeinden in der Steiermark (A) wird exemplarisch gezeigt, wie Kommunen mit den bestehenden Versorgungs- und Infrastrukturbedingungen zurechtgekommen sind, und wie Menschen in diesen Gemeinden lernend einen Weg im Familienverbund, in der Nachbarschaft, in der Berufswelt oder den Vereinen gefunden haben bzw. welche Aspekte in den genannten Lebenswelten als hilfreiche Instrumente wahrgenommen wurden.
