Kerber Verlag The Opéra: Volume IX
The Opéra has been reinvented — at least to some extent. After eight successful editions with alternating art direction, the editor, Matthias Straub has entrusted the design legend Mirko Borsche (ZEIT magazine, SZ magazine, and many more) with the creative re-launch of the ninth edition. This refreshing new approach to the pictures and typography will bring The Opéra into its next decade. The proven structure and the artistic gaze in the selection of photographers and pictures are also central in Volume IX: The Opéra embodies contemporary nude photography and stands for an unconditional commitment to art and the body. Artists: Shiori Akiba, Kimbra Audrey, Jim de Block, Martina Borsche, Eva Bukareva, Arthur Cadre, Indira Cesarine, Barron Claiborne, Stephane Coutelle, Francois Delebecque, Emmet Green, Samy Husson, David PD Hyde, Arnoldas Kubilius, Anna Lazareva, Joanne Leah, Maud Levavasseur, Lin Zhipeng, Julia Luzina, Mia Macfarlane & Julien Crouigneau, Gerhard Merzeder, Stefan Milev, Veronique Pecheux, Laurence Philomene, Christina Rollny, Maya Ruska, Ryuta Sakurai, Caroline Senecal, Joanna Szproch, Slava Thisset, Sean Patrick Watters, Leafy Yeh, Ziqian Liu

Kerber Verlag The Opéra: Magazine for Classic & Contemporary Nude Photography - Volume VI
The magazine for classic and contemporary nude photography returns with a vibrant compilation of the most beautiful works from the field of the most intimate form of portrait photography. In selecting the works, it was important to the editor Matthias Straub to curate a bridge between the traditional approach to the human body and new, unusual perspectives. In the current edition, there are therefore both abstract works and also very classical nude studies. The familiar structuring of the magazine into the five acts of the opera, according to Gustav Freytag, guides viewers through the photos selected as a content-related leitmotiv.

For the eighth time, The Opéra sets out to present the human body as it was created or independently formed and shaped. In their diverse works, numerous photographers from all over the world once more share the same curiosity to explore human emotions. All of them, some reluctant and observing, others delightedly engaged and orchestrated, act out the great spectacle that is human existence.

Kerber Verlag The Opéra: Volume X
As an anniversary edition The Opéra is reinventing itself with its tenth edition and yet has remained true to its attitude: the classic and modern interpretation of the human body in all its facets, perspectives, forms and interpretations. What's new? For the first time, a male title motif questions the boundaries and definitions of masculinity and femininity. The magazine is divided into a classic and a contemporary act, which are separated by the so-called intermezzo. The classic part has numerous black and white stretches with very sensitive body contemplations, while the contemporary part is extraordinarily colourful - almost loudly designed. For the first time, a woman was in charge of the design: Christina Rollny, who is only 22 years old, gives Volume X an experimental and at the same time refreshingly young look.
