These are Oil paintings I made for “Red Dot Design Award Basel”: Portraits of the Designers, who won the prizes over other 511 prise-winning design firms from 43 different countries around the world. Their works are representing all aspects of communication design.
Note: I had to produce these paintings at horribly quick pace, so that the others had enough time to make the Reproductions of them before the Exhibition.

Magic Word in the title of my blog comes from a german poem – "Wünschelrute", written by Joseph F. von Eichendorff:
Schläft ein Lied in allen Dingen,
Die da träumen fort und fort.
Und die Welt hebt an zu singen,
Triffst du nur das Zauberwort.
It's impossible to translate this into English. But anyway, here is one I found in internet:
Songs repose in things abounding,
that keep dreaming to be heard,
and the world shall start resounding,
if you hit her magic word.
I'm chasing the magic word of nature: for me, it's the highest Art of all Arts.
