This elaborate book features over 160 ink and pencil drawings by Christoph Niemann, each a story of an unfamiliar place. They are observations on traveling, arriving and immersing oneself, on the melancholy of being on the road and the adventure of discovering new destinations-among them New York, Paris, Hong Kong, Amsterdam, Seville and Kyoto. Regardless of their subjects, these are all iconic sketches, capable of grasping the magic, light and mood of a place in a handful of virtuoso strokes. In Niemann's own words in Souvenir: Over time memories change. Most things fade, while others become more significant. Connections arise that one wasn't aware of originally. Sometimes a drawing can capture all this in a new and surprising way. And with some luck, the picture feels as authentic as the moment itself. Co-published with Diogenes, Zurich
