FallWinter Issue 05 - HUMOUR
The French philosopher Dominique Noguez numerated explicitly in one of his
lectures, entitled with the bizarre title L´humour n´existe
pas, what is humour and what isn´t.
Humour is not a laughter, not a smile, isn´t comedy, neither
spontaneity nor joviality, not even happiness. To tell the truth about humour:
There is nothing more complicated than humour. But we talk about a discreet,
wherever possible invisible complexity.
(from: Telepolis, Helmut Merschmann)
In this issue Austrian as well as international photographers, illustrators,
designers, artists and journalists show their view of the topic "Humour",
they researched and watched out very impressively about humour and its different
fathers:
