Am 22. September 2012 fanden Signierstunde, Ausstellung und Lesung “One Night Stand” zum erotischen Sammelband “Bettgeschichten – Comics für Erwachsene” (Hrsg: Naomi Fearn und Reinhard Kleist im Zwerchfell Verlag), für den ich die “Frau Nachbarin” gezeichnet habe, statt – und es war ein ganz wunderschöner Abend! Danke dafür an Naomi Fearn, Modern Graphics, die Galerie Knoth und Krüger und vor allem an diejenigen, die tatsächlich vorgelesen haben!

Mehr über die Veranstaltung lesen, Fotos ansehen und sogar die aufsehenerregende Playlist anhören kann man jetzt im Bettgeschichten Blog (nebst einigen sehr feinen Rezensionen!)– viel Vergnügen!

Meine “Frau Nachbarin”, die ich für den erotischen Sammelband “Bettgeschichten – Comics für Erwachsene” (Hrsg: Naomi Fearn und Reinhard Kleist im Zwerchfell Verlag) gezeichnet habe, wird neben den anderen Wunderwerken für dieses herrlich unverschämte Buch am 22. September 2012 im Rahmen von “One Night Stand” bei Modern Graphics (Signierstunde 17 bis 19 Uhr) bzw. in der Galerie Knoth und Krüger (Ausstellung und Lesung ab 21 Uhr) in Berlin ausgestellt! Oder so ähnlich.

The development of all the layers nested in windows and mirrors in the “Neighbour” scene I illustrated for the anthology “Bettgeschichten” (Zwerchfell Verlag) was terribly complicated, so it may deserve to be shown in detail as well. (more…)

Ich habe soeben entdeckt, dass es neuerdings eine Website zur Wanderausstellung “Märchenwelten” über die Märchen der Gebrüder Grimm, die derzeit dank der Goethe-Institute in vier Exemplaren um die Welt tourt und auch drei meiner Märchenmädchen beinhaltet, gibt – und da stehen auch die jeweils aktuellen Orte und Daten dabei!

Our special page with Lily Lux – “Lily loves discoveries.” – that we developed and illustrated for the beautiful anthology “Hugh! Winnetou” that will be published in celebration of the Peng!-award to Helmut Nickel as father of the Winnetou-comics in June 2011 at Edition 52, will be exhibited at the Münchner Comicfest June 23rd to 26th, 2011, at the Jagd- und Fischereimuseum and later in some other cities as well! (more…)

I just uploaded some of the sketches I made for Lily Lux’ little discovery journey to the Wild West – I liked this one in particular, but in the end travelling without leaving the room seemed to fit the subject Winnetou e.g. his genesis much better. (more…)

For the Frankfurt Book Fair in October, we made some magnetic cards (7,2 x 10,2 cm) as advertising materials for Lily Lux – for happy fridges (and other magnetic surfaces), for fall anticipation, for some more Lily Lux in everyday life, and especially for holding little papers with important notes. Just as Lily herself likes to do. (more…)
