Alexandra Klobouk Visual and Storytelling
Alexandra Klobouk is an artist, author and culture & content illustrator working between Berlin and the rest of the world. In her work she combines visual storytelling, journalism, intercultural communication, travel sketching, music, performance and various other disciplines.
Her work is vivid, fun and full of life, while it often tells stories of complex, difficult or unpleasant topics like Climate Change and Pollution, Gentrification, Fear of Strangers, the Holocaust or ignorance about Islam or the Turkish culture. She does it with a special power of observation and a in a way that makes it easy to engage, to lose the fear of contact, to want to know more.
Her books have been awarded most beautiful German books several times and were published by various publishers as Suhrkamp, Insel Verlag, C.H. Beck, Verlag Antje Kunstmann, Onkel&Onkel and Viel&Mehr.
She weekly illustrates the column GEHEN by Christian Seiler for DER KURIER and works for Magazines such as Süddeutsche Zeitung Magazin, ZEITMagazin, Merian, Das Magazin of Zurich Tagesanzeiger, and others.
She has been collaborating with Goethe-Institut and several other cultural and political innitiatives.

Praise from Christian Seiler:
... Pictures that are so enthusiastic and colorful yet so precise and sensual - I think that as a reader you basically don't need any further explanations, you have eyes in your head after all. ...
Above all, (The Portuguese Cuisine) is an impressive testimony to how complex stories can be told. ...
I can only recommend this book without reservation.”
