Herrlich Hosting. Anyone, Anywhere, Anytime
Authors: gestalten & Hannah Kleeberg

Herrlich Hosting. Anyone, Anywhere, Anytime is a contemporary coffee table book about hospitality, food, and togetherness, where atmosphere and feeling are more important than etiquette and perfection. In her debut book, Berlin-based food creative Hannah Kleeberg shows how hosting can evolve into a form of self-expression—playful, stylish, and personal.

This photo book is not about fine dining, but about fun dining: meals as moments, recipes as memories, and tables as creative stages. With a fresh, idiosyncratic perspective, Kleeberg combines food, styling, and rituals into a new language of communal eating, where spontaneity and pleasure are central. Butter becomes sculpture, table settings become scenography, and every gathering takes on its own character.

Herrlich Hosting invites you to let go and experiment. The richly illustrated chapters showcase imaginative settings, seasonal recipes, and accessible ideas that can be applied in any home and at any time. This makes the book not only an inspiring coffee table book but also a practical guide for anyone who loves to bring people together in a personal and creative way.

Perfect for lovers of food, interior design, styling, design, and modern hospitality.

What to expect

• A visually inspiring journey through creative dining tables and intimate settings
• Hosting ideas focused on atmosphere, ritual, and feeling rather than perfection
• Simple, seasonal recipes for spontaneous dinners and informal gatherings

Jazz: Best of the Apollo, Village Vanguard and Riverside Sessions
Authors: Richard Scheinin and Steve Scharpiro

In Jazz: Best of the Apollo, Village Vanguard, and Riverside Sessions, a rarely seen chapter of jazz history comes to life. The legendary photographer Steve Schapiro – globally renowned for his compelling social documentaries from the 1960s – turned his lens to the New York jazz scene early on. Even before his big breakthrough, he captured musicians in clubs, studios, and backstage moments, precisely at the intersection where music, zeitgeist, and personal expression converge.

In the early 60s, jazz experienced a golden age in New York. Schapiro, raised in the Bronx and working as a freelance photographer, gained access to the intimate world of Riverside Records. There, he not only photographed performances but also the moments in between: Sonny Rollins lifting weights backstage, Bobby Timmons engrossed in a sudden musical insight, musicians completely absorbed in their craft. His images exude proximity, respect, and a keen eye for the decisive moment.

The photographs in this coffee table book – largely never before published – feature icons such as Cannonball Adderley, Melba Liston, Bill Evans, Wayne Shorter, Freddie Hubbard, Sonny Rollins, and Count Basie. Together, they form a visual historical document of exceptional value, presenting jazz not as a myth, but as lived reality.

What you can expect:

• An impressive photo archive by Steve Schapiro featuring jazz legends from the early 60s
• Narrative context and interpretation by renowned jazz journalist Richard Scheinin
• Iconic names like Miles Davis, Dorothy Ashby, Bill Evans, and many others, captured in their purest moments
• A foreword by Sonny Rollins, an afterword by Kurt Elling.

Norton).

Steve Schapiro (1934–2022) was one of the most influential American photographers of his generation. He achieved global fame for his photojournalistic coverage of the American Civil Rights Movement, including the March on Washington and the Selma to Montgomery marches. He also created iconic portraits and film stills for The Godfather and Taxi Driver, among others.
