Notes

The oil paintings, which the artists - as part of the barter - produced on site, have been reproduced as stickers and were stuck in by hand.

Publisher Note

This is the second volume of "Ich bin gerne Bauer - I like being a farmer." Antje Schiffers and Thomas Sprenger have been bartering with farmers from Germany, Switzerland, Spain, Hungary, Austria England, for 25 years: They offer farmers a painting of their farm in exchange for a film in which they, the farmers, present their business and their work. Schiffers and Sprenger collect the films they receive in exchange, and edit them. The paintings have remained on the farms. This collection of interview transcripts, video stills and paintings can be seen as an archive and as an image in time.
