I have created a
number of full-size color
illustrations for a book from Rowohlt publishers.
Entitled
“Tim asks Tom,” this original publication sets out to explain
terminology from society and politics to juveniles in easy-to-understand
language.
In his book,
Tom Buhrow, a bestselling author
and popular TV anchorman for Tagesthemen,
Germany’s most watched daily news show, employs a dialog
style to give insight into typical terminology disseminated with
news pieces, ranging from “anti doping” to “migration,” “renewable
energy“ and “inquiry board.“
My 29 full-size inside color
illustrations in whimsical style are used to both illustrate and complement the text.
A response to the
current financial crisis, I have created
this panic-ridden guy here for a major German bank who is being chased by
captions bearing horrifying terminology ranging from hedge funds and M&A to
private equity and shareholder values.

11/08 Award in Year
of Mathematics
Cartoon Contest
My entry entitled
"Ivory-Tower Math Genius at Work" been awarded
the second prize in the 2008
mathematics cartoon competition
initiated by the German Mathematicians' Association (DMV). The organizers were looking for
cartoons dealing with mathematics from a fresh and innovative angle.
My award-winning
entry zooms in on an issue with people working in the fields of mathematics
and science in that there is typically an inclination towards ivory-tower
science which never makes it into the "real world."
“Now, let’s see... if I took the second derivative of
α,
this would yield the new natural constant
β0
which would in turn revolutionize the way we see the
universe today... oops, time for lunch!”
The award ceremony
took place at the Berlin Academy of Sciences on 7 November, 2008, when
special prizes for journalism and media were awarded also. The jury included
popular cartoonist and comic artists, Til Mette and Jamiri. The cartoon
award was created to help popularize mathematics in the public eye.

10/08 Linocut Illustrations
for Random House Collection of Short Stories
A collection of
short stories by Walter Rothschild has just been
published by
Goldmann Verlag / Random House.
Entitled, "To
Life!", the stories for this hardcover original
publication deal with events and occurences told with a
twinkling eye by the author, a Jewish rabbi who
originally called the collection "Tales from the
Rabbi's Desk." Translated by well-known
author-translator Mirjam Pressler, Rabbi Rothschild's
stories are warm-hearted and whimsical while staying
distinctly humane.
Both
cover art and
28 inside illustrations
have been designed as intricate linocut prints in
black and white. My color cover illustration shows a man
flying a kite in a beautiful landscape by the sea.
