Dr Eva Linhart (Curator of Book Art and Graphics, Museum Angewandte Kunst) talks to Sabine Kochendörfer (brandbook+Nuuna, Geschäftsführung) and Sandra Doeller (Inhaberin Bureau Sandra Doeller, Kooperation mit Nuuna und Designerin der Ausstellung Text & Spirit). On the occasion of the exhibition Text & Spirit. Illuminated Manuscripts from the Museum Collection and Their Digitization, which will show the complete inventory of illuminated medieval manuscripts from the museum collection in spring 2025, we ask about the many work steps and competences that lead to Nuuna’s notebooks. What are the secrets behind the choice of materials and their designs? And what defines their fashion factor?
The event will take place at Villa Metzler.

If you would like to know where and when the idea for smartphones originated, visit the exhibition Text & Spirit. Illuminated Manuscripts from the Museum Collection and Their Digitization. All of the museum’s illuminated medieval manuscripts are on display here for the first time. The collection originates from the Linel and Metzler private collections in Frankfurt. It has now also been published as scans on the museum’s website.
Prayer books and fragments from the late Middle Ages from the collection raise the question of their value, their significance and use as a medium as well as their role as luxurious companions in life. At the time, they were the most valuable objects and were intended to ensure a spiritual life in accordance with the divine word. They were meant to enlighten people. What is the most expensive object today and why? What role does seeing and being seen play in this? How does the connection between the medium and spirituality come about?
What does all this have to do with fashion as a sensual, physical experience? Or to put it another way: what are the interfaces between handbags, decorative necklaces, smartphones and books of hours as luxury objects? To what extent is private prayer in the rhythm of three hours a day a phenomenon that creates a public sphere? And why does reading turn into seeing explosive forms?
