A black-and-white political caricature from 1914 titled "Militarism on Trial." In the center background, Rosa Luxemburg stands behind a raised podium, pointing an accusing finger toward the foreground. Below her, a military officer in a pointed helmet sits with his back to the viewer on a bench labeled "Anklagebank" (Defendant's Bench). Between them, two rows of benches labeled "Zeugenbank" (Witness Bench) are filled with skeletons wearing military uniforms, facing each other. Two court officials are seated at the desk next to Luxemburg, appearing to take notes. The scene is framed by a formal courtroom setting, creating a powerful visual reversal where the anti-war activist acts as the prosecutor of the military.

("Militarism on Trial", Frankfurt, 1914. Rosa Luxemburg was prosecuted for her anti-militarist speech and for agitating against the military. The caricature depicts the trial through an inverted perspective: Rosa is the one putting militarism on trial.)

Overhead view of ten people arranged loosely in a circle on a dark, matte floor, each lying or crouching close to the ground in a curled or resting position. Their bodies face inward toward the center, leaving an empty circular space between them. Clothing varies in muted and earthy colors, including dark green, black, gray, light blue, patterned fabrics, and one bright orange shirt that stands out near the bottom of the image. Some people lie on their sides with knees bent, others kneel or lie flat with arms folded under their heads. Soft, natural light enters from the top left, creating gentle highlights and shadows on the floor and emphasizing the stillness and contemplative mood of the scene.

Nighttime view of the Seine in Paris with reflections of yellow and orange lights shimmering on the water. On the right stands the illuminated Hôtel de Ville, glowing in deep blue light with large banners hanging on its facade. A metal bridge crosses the river in front of it, lit by white lamps. On the left side, residential buildings and bare winter trees line the riverbank, softly lit by streetlights under a cloudy dark sky.

A high-contrast, turquoise-on-black stylized portrait of a person wearing round goggles and a headband with two antenna-like rods ending in spheres. They wear a jacket with three stripes on the sleeves and hold a hand over their chest, where a small pixelated heart shape appears. The background is completely black, giving the figure a graphic, neon silhouette look.

Bright yellow poster with bold blue and white graphics for the Diskurs Festival 2025. In the center, there is a photo of a smashed white layer cake with black polka dots and a single broken candle sticking out. Above the cake, in a jagged blue frame, the text reads “DISKURSFESTIVAL 6.–9.11.2025.” In the top right corner, another starburst shape says “FORESHOCKS!” in blue letters. On the left, a blue badge reads “BUY FESTIVAL PASS PASS PASS.” Along the bottom, small blue icons label sections “HOME,” “CALENDER,” “CONTACT,” “TEAM,” and “BLOG.” Logos of sponsors and institutions, including Gießen Kulturamt, Hessische Theater Akademie, and Justus-Liebig-Universität Gießen, are aligned at the bottom. The design uses only yellow, blue, white, and black, creating a loud, pop-art feel.

View of the historic Rococo Hall inside the Duchess Anna Amalia Library in Weimar. The room is grand and oval-shaped, lined with floor-to-ceiling shelves filled with antique books in faded leather bindings. The walls are painted pale blue with white stucco ornamentation and gilded gold accents on the railings, columns, and cornices. A curved upper gallery wraps around the room, supported by arches and balustrades decorated with intricate gold leaf. Marble busts of scholars and historical figures stand at intervals along the balcony. Above, a richly decorated ceiling features an oval skylight with painted artwork and sculpted flourishes. Soft natural light shines through tall arched windows, supplemented by hanging lantern-style lamps that add a warm glow. The overall atmosphere is solemn, elegant, and reverent — a sanctuary of knowledge preserved in exquisite 18th-century style.

Two people are sitting on the floor and working together on a large white cloth spread out in front of them. The cloth is covered with hand-stitched colorful lines and circles that resemble a map or network diagram, stitched in blue, orange, green, and red thread. The person on the left, wearing a white T-shirt and black shorts, has several tattoos on their arms and legs and is kneeling while carefully placing something on the fabric. The person on the right, in a light blue T-shirt and denim shorts, is also focused on attaching items to the cloth. Around them, several small white objects with blue straps are placed on the map. In the background, other people are sitting on chairs or the floor, watching the activity. The setting appears to be indoors on a wooden floor.

Three vertical panels / Left panel: A view of the entrance to a small historic house with light yellow and white plaster walls and timber framing. The wooden door is open, revealing a dark hallway inside. Several plant pots and flowers are arranged near the steps. A small portrait photo of Friedrich Nietzsche is placed on a brick ledge next to the entrance. Center panel: A close-up of Friedrich Nietzsche’s grave, a horizontal stone slab with gold-colored engraved text reading: “FRIEDRICH NIETZSCHE, 15 OCTOBER 1844 – 25 AUGUST 1900.” The stone lies flat on the grassy ground with dappled sunlight and some moss in the engraved letters. Right panel: A gray statue of a naked male figure with an exaggerated mustache, resembling Nietzsche. The figure stands upright in a grassy yard, holding a round object in front of its lower body. Trees and a red-roofed building are visible in the background.

Wider garden view: A broader view of the house where Nietzsche was born in Röcken, Saxony-Anhalt. The old building has ivy growing along its wall and several windows with faded wooden shutters. A bench sits near the entrance, which is partially obscured by a large tree. The surrounding yard is grassy, with flowers, potted plants, and a rustic outbuilding in the background. A few tables and a red cart are seen in the distance, suggesting a quiet, rural setting.

A group of eleven people is gathered in an outdoor courtyard with stone pavement. They are standing in front of a rustic pink building with tall windows, framed by two leafless trees. The group is diverse in age and style, wearing a mix of casual and stylish clothing, with some donning scarves, hats, and jackets. Many are smiling and posing closely together, reflecting a warm and friendly atmosphere. One person is crouching in the front while others stand behind them. The yellow tote bag and bright blue skirt add pops of color to the otherwise muted background.

A narrow Venetian canal winds through historic buildings with warm-toned facades and green shutters. Small boats, some covered with blue tarps, line the canal. A red fire hydrant stands on the right side of the stone walkway. In the distance, a small arched bridge crosses the canal. The calm water reflects the architecture and the soft overcast sky, creating a serene and picturesque scene.

With doctoral students after the lecture. 🌬️ Early spring in Venice just hits different – a bit of winter's chill still hanging around, but you can already feel the promise of new beginnings in the air.

The sculpture over the altar shows Saint Teresa of Ávila, a Spanish Carmelite nun (1515–1582), swooning in a state of religious ecstasy, while an angel holding a spear stands over her, following her own account of a vision she had. A marble sculpture of an angel and a reclining woman, set against a dramatic backdrop of golden rays. The angel, with flowing hair and large wings, holds a golden arrow and looks down tenderly at the woman. The woman, draped in flowing robes, tilts her head back with an expression of ecstasy or surrender. The golden rays fan out behind them, creating a heavenly atmosphere. The detailed carving of the figures' faces, clothing, and posture captures a sense of movement and emotion. Location: The church of Santa Maria della Vittoria, Rome, Italy. Sculpture: Ecstasy of Saint Teresa by Gian Lorenzo Bernini, High Roman Baroque, 1652.

The church of Santa Maria della Vittoria was just around the corner from my hotel, so I popped in to say hi to Teresa of Ávila, just to check if she's still in ecstasy. 💥

And thanks to everyone who came to my book event in Rome yesterday, it was such a good time!
