This book explores the Idyll;

'The idyll represents a code for inwardness, connected with the dream of the simple life and the bliss of paradise - the fiction of better life'

'The exhibition confronts this topic in the form of a dialogue between established and young artist. Death and superficiality, illusion and delusion - the curator have succeeded in staging an exhibition that is both relax and tense.'
