Publisher's Synopsis
Heinrich Luber's work is situated on the interface of sound, image, and body. Luber reflects the body as source of language, the image as the parameter of expression and the sound (such as noise, language) as medium of meaning. Although these various registers of human communication in Luber's work gape open in respect to each other, he does not indulge in nostalgia for a lost unity of sense. Rather he explores, in a multifaceted and often humorous play with the public's expectations, the various aspects of communication, ranging from "the primal scream to the information overkill" (Christoph Grunenberg).
