Author: Barbara Herbst (ed.)
This monograph presents two series by Jeremias Altmann, an artist whose work explores the themes of machine, man, and development. In YOUNG PROPHECIES, Altmann reconstructs his own childhood drawings, and in MACHINES, he examines the the inner workings of technical devices over time. The unconventional design of this volume allows the book to be read in two directions, encouraging playful engagement. It includes a short essay by the artist, and writing from various contributors. Altmann's essay traverses themes ranging from child psychology to reflections on the tension between man and machine. Contributors to the monograph include Barbara Herbst, Antonia Hoerschelmann, Esther Mlenek, Günther Oberhollenzer, and Nina Schedlmayer.
