A collection represents its collector. This means that it can also be read as an ego document, a personal story. That story, for example about the relationship between Benno Premsela’s own (strict) design views and the things he collected, is the guiding principle of 'Benno Premsela. Warrior&Seducer'. The book’s many illustrations first and foremost show the functional context of his collections: his residence, which witnessed numerous discussions about the displayed objects, and the exhibitions to which he so generously contributed. In addition, the book contains a lot of visual material concerning Benno Premsela’s ceramics collection.
