      The taste of Studio Jeppe Hein by artist couple Silke and Jeppe Hein is not a typical cookbook, just as it isn't merely an art book.Besides recipes from the studio kitchen, it provides an exclusive insight into the studio and the art that is created there.Images of artworks, studio life and exhibition projects mingle with images of ingredients, the roof garden, the kitchen and shared lunches.Artists Sophie Kitching, Jose Dávila, Lilibeth Cuenca Rasmussen and Anselm Reyle each hosted a rainbow dinner.Author and philosopher Finn Janning contributes with a Philosophy of the Saucepan.The book illustrates Silke and Jeppe Hein's great passion for art and cooking and how important eating together is to them in their life and work.

      This book is a free associative recount of the 'I Prefer Not To' lecture series staged by architect Peter Swinnen at the ETH Department of Architecture (Zürich).Twelve particular guests touch upon various attitudes of professional abstinence and/or obstinacy.In an offbeat manner, 'I Prefer Not To' can be understood as a critical re-assessment of architecture's social and political ethos, often tightly contained and devoid of any unforeseen mischief.Through the words, positions and works of the speaker guests 'I Prefer Not To' managed -- for a brief moment -- to install an unformatted stage for problematization and debate.Each lecture is introduced by an editor's note, contextualizing specific choices and unadapted zooms.Contributors include Luc Tuymans, Christian Kerez, Something Fantastic, Anne Lacaton, Jan De Vylder, Philip Ursprung, Tom Emerson, Laurent Stalder, François Charbonnet, Anri Sala, Maarten Delbeke, Finn Williams, Arno Brandlhuber, ETH Studio Swinnen, Sophia Holst and Beatriz Van Houtte.
