THE KLING KLANG MACHINES ARE BACK

Since their performance at the Venice Beinnale in 2005, Kraftwerk’s multimedia shows were also seen as a kind of artistic performance.
Within the context of a multi-channel 3D video installation specially developed for the Kunstbau, Kraftwerk will be holding three concerts in the Munich Alten Kongresshalle – which are of course sold out..! To crown it [...]

MONO.PUNKT #12: FIRST ISSUE

With the world’s largest book fair in Frankfurt opening tomorrow, it’s about time someone made some space for independent publishing, so we were more than pleased when we were invited to take part in First Issue, an alternative fair focusing on small art publishers, including the likes of our friends at Rollo Press, Spector Books [...]

MONO.GRAMM A/W 2011: WRAP JACKET

There’s something infinitely comforting about wrapping yourself into warm fabric, so we were wondering why this particular pleasure shouldn’t be extended to a jacket as well.

MONO.GRAMM A/W 2011: DRAPED SWEATER DRESS

mono.gramm is all about dresses, really. In fact, we’re kind of infatuated with the German word Kleider, which means dresses but also clothes in general. But anyway, one shouldn’t be too bothered with definitions – so if a dress can be worn as a sweater, then that’s fine with us.

Dark in tones but playful in spirit, we’re really proud of this one. And since a lot of love and effort [...]

STORE OF THE MONTH: OMMU / ATHENS

With Greece getting little more attention than to its unprecedented budget deficit, it’s worth pointing out that in spite of the admittedly difficult times, life goes on, people go about whatever it is they do, and anyway, there is more to life than just money. Good books, for instance, and that is precisely what our [...]

VIRGINS, HERMAPHRODITES AND COLLEGE GRADUATES

It’s been almost 10 years since Jeffrey Eugenides wrote Middlesex. Finally his new novel was published, called The Marriage Plot (I haven’t read it yet). The protagonists are college graduates this time – which doesn’t mean it will be less interesting than his previous novels, The Virgin Suicides and Middlesex. There’s hardly a writer that [...]

APPLEFUL

As the Internet abounds with obituaries on Apple mastermind Steve Jobs, The New York Times gathered an excellent overview of all patents to Jobs’ name, profiling just how influential Apple really was in the past 20 years.
