Summary:
The inner courtyard of a Moroccan house promises refuge from the bustle of the outside world, while remaining in touch with nature. Reached by a dark and winding passage, the courtyard is the physical and spiritual centre of the house. Green vegetation, flowering plants (in the garden-like Riads), and fountains fed by narrow channels of flowing water provide a cool, shaded enclosure. Light from above combines to create a serene and sheltering atmosphere, a peaceful paradise. A venerable tradition, still very much alive. Werner Blaser has captured this marvellous architecture in duotone photos.

Summary:
This book is the fruit of a lengthy research project, which gathers and organises coherent sets of material that reflect the timeline of René Heyvaert's (1928-1984) artistic experimentations. It aims to show, for the first time, a significant selection of his mail art. His mail art is linked to his generally multiform oeuvre – which retains, given that he was originally an architect, an overt material and spatial relation to its environment – as well as to his vital circumstances: his gradually deteriorating health, and the loneliness that fed his epistolary vocation.

Summary:
In this series of interviews, conducted over several years with the curator Hans Ulrich Obrist, he discusses the many dimensions of his artistic life, ranging over subjects including ceramics, blogging, nature, philosophy and the myriad influences that have fed into his work.
