Catalogue for exhibition held at the Edith Russ Site for Media Art from July 14 to September 23, 2007. The publication discusses videos by Corinna Schnitt made from 1995 to 2007. Includes analysis by several authors as well as photo documentation, video stills, and a description of each work.

Corinna Schnitt's "works investigate social relationships. Her video installations are often humorous, sometimes verging on the absurd. The images she shows as if in passing are in fact precisely arranged based on exacting scrutiny of various forms of representation. This publication looks at a recent video installation that deals with the issues of homeland, private happiness, leisure time, work and prosperity. Along with information on this new production, an overview is also provided of Corinna Schnitt's previous work" (quote taken from Kehrerverlag's website).

Texts by Sabine Himmelsbach, Irene Tsatsos, Anke Hoffman, Heike Ander, Isabel Herda, Simone Bogner, and Barbara Filser. Edited by Sabine Himmelsbach.
