Dialogues & Attitudes is the first book in the series Concept: Photography. In cooperation with leading museums around the world, a loose series of books will explore particular key themes that follow the current discourse and provide new insights into the further development of the bank’s art collection. Dialogues & Attitudes concentrates on themes such as reflection in media, cinematography, and the staging of the self. With works by Matthew Barney, Christian Boltanski, Hanne Darboven, Tacita Dean, Robert Rauschenberg, Klaus Rinke, Cindy Sherman, Taryn Simon, William Wegman, and many others, as well as essays by Luminita Sabau, Wulf Herzogenrath, Hubert Beck, Veronika Baksa-Soos, and Josef Tillmann, it will present a representative spectrum of current positions in art. An appendix with biographies and bibliographies of the artists, as well as a list of works on display, will round off the volume. Exhibition schedule: Museum Ludwig, Budapest, April 16–June 16,2007
