Franz West by Franz West, ISBN 071483825X
In 1995 the Austrian Franz West transformed the terraces of the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles into a glorious salon, with ranks of metal sofas draped with bright African fabrics: a new kind of public art for weary museum visitors. Drawing inspiration from the history of art (reclining icons such as Manet's Olympia), psychoanalysis (Freud's sofa in West's native Vienna) and a socially interactive type of art, his work is at once both personal and public. As one of Europe's best-known sculptors, West is regularly invited to such major surveys as Skulptur Projekte in Munster and Documenta. He has gained particular recognition for incorporating the bodies of his spectators into his sculpture, producing oddly-hued forms called Passstucke ('adaptives') -- plaster sculptures designed to be worn, and which contort the wearer into bizarre positions.

Champagne Sandwich by Christian Miller, ISBN 0753168871
It began when Elizabeth Lindsay and her teenage daughters, Kate and Cassy, fell in love with a flat - a tiny flat. It had only two rooms and the three Lindsays, plus their dog Dipso and their very vocal canary Jaundice, needed considerable ingenuity to fit into it. They put the 'fridge' on the fire-escape and hid favorite dresses in the breadbin; Cassy perched precariously on the narrow balcony while Kate entertained her friends; and Elizabeth fended off the advances of an admirer while actually sitting on Cassy - admittedly Cassy was hidden inside the convertible sofa, but she was also singing Christmas carols. . . Life in a small flat, the Lindsays discovered, might be a bit hectic - but it was always fun.
