The Book Club at this year's Grafixx Festival will take place as part of a series of talks. Moderated by Obi Mundorff, it gives a platform to voices from the contemporary graphic scene. Authors, publishers and artists will provide insights into their practices, present new publications and showcase their favourite books. On the last day of the festival, Nadine Redlich (DE) will join Begoña García-Alén (ES) and Ekta (SE) to discuss her work.

Redlich is renowned for putting humour, melancholy and subtle observations at the heart of her work: crying apples, talking stones and anthropomorphic figures joking or teasing each other are part of her unmistakable style. 

Since the publication of her groundbreaking "Ambient Comics" (published by Rotopol), many other books have followed: after her sensitive examination of the inner life of stones in "Stones", the emotional love letter "I Hate You – You Just Don’t Know It Yet", and her meditation on fear in "Paniktotem", Nadine Redlich dedicates her book "Doing the Work" to the struggles of everyday existence.

Her cartoons and comics can be found in a variety of publications, including The New York Times, DIE ZEIT, Süddeutsche Zeitung, Frieze Magazine, Le Monde and the Elbphilharmonie Magazine.
