Jürgen Bauer's work revolves around the motif of the house, drawn to its strong symbolism and rich array of metaphors. This breadth reflects his artistic variations on the theme and his engagement with societal norms and values, recently influenced by climate change, land consumption, and soil sealing. Repetition is a crucial element in his work, whether in abstract painting and graphics or his minimalist objects.

This publication provides an overview of this extensive body of work through 125 images. The literary foreword by Mario Wurmitzer is complemented by contributions on Jürgen Bauer's oeuvre from Bettina Siegele, Anna Fliri, and Esther Mlenek. Bettina Siegele explores the connection to architectural theory, Esther Mlenek highlights the theme of repetition, and Anna Fliri focuses on the compositional aspects of color and form.
