Apart from the appendix and a few captions, this conceptual picture book on documenta 12 does without any text. The photographic illustrated book brings together individual views of the exhibition and its creation, the city of Kassel and its history. "This is not about the unfinished, not about a making of, but about artistic perspectives on a work called 'documenta'." (Roger M. Buergel)
