Hildegard Kurt's close collaboration with Shelley Sacks over the past seven years, in particular through co-leading a practice-based 'forum for cultural action' in Weimar between 2003-2009, has evolved into several new projects and processes.

These include writing a new monograph together that articulates the practices and insights that link the aesthetic and sustainabilty, and which   form the basis of their shared practice in projects like University of the Trees. 

Their book is due for publication in summer 2012.
It will be published by Verlag fuer Akademische Schriften, in two separate editions - English and German.
