Henri Rousseau, called 'Le Douanier' because of his early career with the French customs service, is one of the most important, fascinating and least studied of late nineteenth-century artists. His determined and unapologetic primitivism distanced his work from most of his contemporaries, but he was widely admired by Picasso, Apollinaire and Kandinsky, and is now seen as one of the pioneers of the modern movement. This book offers a detailed portrait of Rousseau's life and career as well as sensitive interpretations of his unusual, individualistic art.

The American paitner and sculptor Keith Haring, who died in 1990, is, without question, one of the most popular artists of the 20th century. More than a decade after his death, his output is still important to both a younger generation of artists and to the public in general. Therefore, as more and more of his fans and admirers know him only from the posters and products adorned with his images, it seems all the more essential to present the lesser-known aspects of Haring's oeuvre: to look beyond the Haring of the ubiquitous, world-famous cheerful matchstick figures. From his earliest days as an artist, Haring engaged with the meaning of death, suffering, and violence; with the importance of religion and the afterlife to the individual and to society. It is only against this background that his positive, life-affirming icons can be properly understood. The main focus of this publication is on paintings and drawings from the artist's estate, some of which have never been previously published, as well as the rarely seen, large format pictures and wall hangings on the theme of heaven and hell.

Frieder Burda began collecting art over forty years ago out of a fascination for painting as a medium for emotional expression. Meanwhile the first-class collection amassed by this patron of the arts encompasses some one thousand works, from the Classical Modern period to the present. Dazzling highlights of the collection include works by Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, August Macke, Max Beckmann, Pablo Picasso, Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning, Mark Rothko, Gerhard Richter, Georg Baselitz, Markus Lüpertz, and Sigmar Polke. More recent positions in painting and photography encompass works by artists such as Gregory Crewdson, Axel Hütte, Karin Kneffel, and Neo Rauch. The anniversary catalogue edited by Götz Adriani and Hans-Joachim Müller contains an interview with Frieder Burda and illustrations of many of the major works in the collection. It also presents a comprehensive documentation of the decade-old Museum Frieder Burda, celebrating its masterful architecture, designed by Richard Meier.
