American photographer Lewis Baltz showing work from 1967 to the present (1995). The work is mostly black and white, and the body of 30 years work shown here are all photographs of exterior urban or semi-built environments in various states of decay. The sense of the cultural fatigue of the Western world is acute, and the work speaks quietly of dissolution rather than progress. Contains articles by Morten Salling and Denis Baudier.

A picture book that captures the splendor of this castle during the 1600s. Stunning photographs display both the beauty of the empty castle rooms while also conjuring the former grandeur of these rooms by including examples of furniture and textiles from that period. Though the furniture was often simple in design, the elaborate textiles and decorative arts offset this simplicity to create a perfectly balanced elegance not to be rivaled elsewhere. This book is intended to complete this picture as the refurnishing of the Läckö Castle has begun with this exhibition. The catalog also includes an inventory of the art belonging to Duke Magnus Gabriel De la Gardie from 1681.

Bayt Al-“ ˜Aqqad is one of 23 buildings that is part of the UNESCO World Heritage programme in old Damascus. This book takes a comprehensive look at the restoration that took place on the building when the Danish Institute in Damascus took over the house in 1997. This process revealed not only how beautiful the house was but that it contains fine examples of the most important periods of the exterior and the interior architectural history of Damascus.
