Seven contemporary
artists were invited to offer contributions on the phenomenon of mysterious
recurrences from the past. The illustration part of the publication documents
the works by Anna Gaskell, Isabell Heimerdinger, Constantin Luser, Jan
Mancuska, Martina Steckholzer, David Thorpe, and Clemens von Wedemeyer.
The theoretical contributions in the volume contain numerous references
to Henri Bergson's historically unique text "Le souvenir du présent
et la fausse reconaissance", which is reproduced in the original
French, along with a German translation. The cover themes range from the
significance of déjà-vu for art and literature to the parallels
created when a comparative analysis of déjà-vu is made with
images produced in the media.
