In a career spanning 30 years, Schütze has exhibited his photographic and installation works in galleries and museums around the world, released over thirty albums of original recordings, scored a number of films and performed numerous concerts. He has collaborated with artists such as James Turrell, Josiah McElheny and Isaac Julien and musicians as diverse as Bill Laswell, Raoul Björkenheim, Toshinori Kondo, Lol Coxhill and Jah Wobble.

Dressing The Air is a unique open resource that aims to enrich creative thinking by encouraging a multi-sensory approach. A constantly evolving archive and creative news feed, Dressing The Air monitors and reports on a diverse range of art-forms from cinema to sculpture, painting to furniture design, land-art to perfumery.

A View Becomes A Window
Studio Olafur Eliasson

A View Becomes A Window

As the book becomes an increasingly endangered artifact, Studio Olafur Eliasson settle on its highly resonant form to best present this entirely interactive meditation on colour, reflection and optics. Involving the body in the process of revealing the complex and gradual changes this object generates, creates a wonderfully physical link to the very elemental phenomena it activates. It is significant how much richer the idea is when linked to the structure of a book than it might be applied, say, to a tablet App.

"Anticipating Time, architect Arthur Beresford Pite (1861-1934) rendered his new mission hall as if it was already old to blend in with London's East End slums around it. The practice is so rare as to be collectable."
