Wonder box, 3-D collage, miniature installation, assemblage, peep box, collector’s box and cabinet of rarities... All these designations encompass a fascinating world of forms of expression, which are summarized here under the title »ART in a BOX«. The overall picture of this "art in a box" fascinates with the arrangement of the things and the stories they tell. In her instruction book, Marlis Maehrle provides motivation for collecting and arranging personal finds. The techniques and design patterns presented here can be implemented in the existing individual box formats - be it in a cigar box, a candy tin or in a packaging box. The voyage of discovery leads from simple examples of arrangement, division and attachment to designs with sophisticated paper structures and the self-construction of boxes. For further inspiration, after the instruction part, very different works by different artists are gathered in an extensive gallery.
