The publication outlines the development of ephemeral art from the Baroque to the present day – represented, for example, at the Venice Biennales or Expo.02 – which focuses more on atmosphere and ambience than in the long run and in which there is always a piece of utopia, a piece of castles in the air. In addition, the projects created on the occasion of the competition to celebrate the 150th anniversary of ETH Zurich will be presented.
