Tiegel & Tumult / No News Nos.1-41, 1986-1998 (all published)
Complete set of the quarterly artists' magazine which started as Tiegel & Tumult (Nos.1-25) and
continued as No News (Nos.26-41). Edited in Kassel by Wolfgang Luh and Jürgen O. OIbrich. Each issue with (original) contributions by an international artist, or 'visual guest'. First published in an edition of 150 copies (Nos.1-24), followed by 60-100 copies. The format of the magazine was very diverse, initially in book format, but expanding to boxes, bags, cans, and a plastic suitcase.
Each issue contains numerous objects, ready-mades, original art works and various sorts of printed material. The magazine has ties to Fluxus, (with signed contributions by Ann Noël, Emmet Williams, Ay-O, Böhmler, Daniel Spoerri), but also to mail art and visual poetry, and presents itself as an archive of 'the era of printed materials'. Among the contributors are Ay-O (Put Finger in Box,1994), Emmet Williams, Ann Noël (jubilee issue with original signed works by various artists, 1988), Bernard Heidsieck (work on paper in metal frame, 1988), Vittore Baroni, Chuck Close, Bruce McLean (blue plastic suitcase 1990), Claus Böhmler, Walter Dahn, Arno Arts, Heta Norros (marble plate), Boris Nieslony et al.
