The way we work?

A book is a valuable tool by which artists can promote themselves in a targeted way. Public relations (PR), enhancing artists’ reputations, has an indirect and long-term effect which can generate prestige and recognition, leading to high financial returns. Our book design awards also play an important role in this regard.

Available at any time as softcover and hardcover

Publishing with a publisher is a valuable service which enhances an author’s reputation. Our bilingual books are published by the German publishing house Rediroma with ISBN and before that in a first edition by the bookseller Peecho in Amsterdam. Any number of printed books can be purchased from both publishers at any time – with Peecho in different qualities. Usually, we do not give out free copies. Copies can be purchased from the publisher at a reduced author price.

We offer several book projects with different topics – usually available as softcover and hardcover – so you can choose your preference. There is no compulsory purchase of copies and there is no minimum purchase required. Books can be purchased at any time from the publisher – means also later (see above). When you order from Peecho, the books are usually printed at a printing company located in your country and shipped to you from there (within 7 – 10 days). This will reduce your postage costs.

Maximum duration for each book project

We publish 2 to 4 art books per year and they are all edited sequentially.Browse through our wide variety of books! After registering, artists have about two to four months to send us their artworks digitally (depending on the deadline, which can be shorter at the end of the registration period).

Please refer carefully to our guidelines for registration to avoid mistakes in the book! After all the images are available, we may need six months to a year year to prepare each book for printing with the publisher (ISBN). But usually (if everything goes well) things go faster. (So far, the online book and the first edition at Peecho have been published – after 3 – 6 month.)

We will keep you informed about the progress of the book. This also applies to our free services. Updated information is always available in the top menu CALL ARTISTS. Please scroll ther down! Please refrain from sending emails on this matter as much as possible. We ask for your patience and understanding: a good book is a lot of work!

Our books are very sophisticated with complex content, which need much more time than a standard art catalog. The poems and photo collages for the design, for example, as well as the texts on the prominent topics are far from being created in a day. Professional translation also takes time.

As well inviting suitable participants from all over the world takes time! And since some of our books are themed, it takes a while for all the images to be available. You can help ensure the imminent publication of our books by registering as soon as possible and send your images in time. Please observe the guidelines for image registration to avoid queries.

An anniversary can be a possible occasion (impuls for an hommage / theme) for a book, but not a reason to publish it in time for the anniversary, as our topics are always popular and effective. The anniversary is mentioned in the book, but does not prime role.

Prominent topics playing an important role

The famous themes of the PR contents in our art books are clearly highlighted on the book cover and discussed in detail in the book in an entertaining way. Our decades of journalistic experience as cultural authors at renowned publishers and editorial teams come in handy.

The texts in our books encourage readers to look closely at your works and to enjoy them. Through our PR strategy and gift book concept, the interplay of art, poetry / literature, classical music and cultural history is central to our book series – bilingual with prominent topics playing an important role.

Our art gift books contain poetry and other original creative text and illustrations of popular themes. This will greatly enhance the artists’ reputation. The design of our books is excellent, featuring brilliant professional texts, art slogans and interpretations, written by us speciallyfor the artists.

With our own texts, we set out to influence readers’ opinions in a way that gives your works charisma and a positive, lasting effect. We are working in the field of public relations and don’t advertise! (In advertising, the client writes his text himself, which often leads to obstruse superlatives and excessive self-praise.)

Distribution via ISBN and networking

It is primarily these high-profile topics that attract attention and, as a result, spread and become known all by themselves – in a sense of permanence. Attention is the key to success! (NEW! Starting in 2026, you can even listen to relaxing music in our online books.)

The books will be distributed via the German library network. They are cataloged in the German National Library and the Provincial Library of our district. All books are also available usually on Amazon and around 20 other internet book shops. Art lovers around the world can purchase the books by ISBN in their local bookstores or online, to keep forever.

We inform relevant cultural institutions about the respective book. We offer the books bilingual with comprehensive documentation (including a list of the award winners) on our English and German websites and blogs, with the free online book on the Swiss portal Yumpu, on Facebook and in our themed playlists on YouTube.

We offer books in a bilingual format, translated by professional native speakers. Our international books use English as a first language.

In our German online journal “Bernsteinrose”, the art book are shared in the context of a greeting, as part of a congratulatory message, or given away as a free online magazine. A promotional button on the sidebar draws the attention of all readers to the art books. This is also done with our books on the English websites, especially with our very special book series “Congratulations!” (LOUNGE 5).

We offer services such as competitions with valuable book design awards and a free online version of the book which you can share with your friends and art lovers.
