“Family Pictures in Graphic Novels” A conversation with Melanie Garanin

Description

Melanie Garanin's artistic exploration of family couldn't be more diverse: while in NILS she deals with the death of her youngest son and uses emotionally charged images to talk about family as a unit and source of strength, in Völlig meschugge?! Based on Andreas Steinhöfel's script, the diversity of families and the resulting conflicts are presented through dynamic drawings. As part of the workshop discussions, Melanie Garanin takes up scenes from both books, offers insights into her work processes and thereby opens up space for conversations with the audience.
