Flix’s career began 20 years ago with Who the Fuck is Faust. Since then, the two-time winner of the “Max und Moritz” Award has played a key role in shaping the world of German-language comics and in establishing comics as a genre outside of the scene. For example, the autobiographically inspired works held and sag was were instrumental in boosting the success of the graphic novel. Flix has also contributed significantly to the renaissance of newspaper comic strips with Da war mal was, Schöne Töchter (Tagesspiegel) and Faust (Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung). Featuring numerous original comics, the exhibition documents how Flix succeeded in making illustrating his career. The exhibition also includes an advance preview of pages from Spirou in Berlin, which comes out in autumn! Flix is the first German artist to draw an episode of this legendary series.
