Roni Horn (*1955 in New York) is fascinated by the diversity of water, as is evidenced in her cycle Some Thames (2000), which features numerous individual photographs of a constantly changing, watery surface.

The book also documents how her major works can be experienced in continually new constellations, arrangements, and contrasts within the context of exhibitions.
