- A monograph of works by German-born artist Susanna BauerThis monograph on Susanna Bauer presents the artist\'s work to an international audience for the first time in book form.
The theme of the relationship between art and nature, and the ensuing interconnections, are investigated both through Bauer\'s original work and in an introductory essay that analyzes her oeuvre within the broader context of the history of art..

The essential ingredients of Bauer\'s artistic production are the ephemeral natural elements that she encounters during walks and hikes in Cornwall, UK, where she lives and works. - A monograph of works by German-born artist Susanna BauerThis monograph on Susanna Bauer presents the artist\'s work to an international audience for the first time in book form
