From the bottom up and vice versa, this number is dedicated to the High reason, with all its related meanings. We find physical, mental and social states of ups and downs, how they relate to each other and, nevertheless, they constantly contradict themselves. Inside are stories about the history of drugs, addiction, reproductive crisis, hopes and disappointments, radiation with benefits, acute dolphin tones and even a scared cake.

In the format of a magazine, each PFEIL page represents the floor, the walls or the roof that together create an imagined room that shows a printed exhibition. Each number is dedicated to a specific word, and artists are invited and they are given space to work in and with this term, and to build or deconstruct the architecture around them. Combined, the contributions are transformed into an organic exhibition that surrounds the leitmotiv.
