His work has been shown throughout Europe and in the USA.
He continues to exhibit on a regular basis and is currently planning shows in Germany and the USA.
His drawings on the record review page of the „Süddeutsche Zeitung“ frequently draw favourable comments. It’s a job the artist enjoys.
A large exhibition of teddy bear pictures is planned for November 2002 in Nürnberg’s toy museum.
The deeply serious and the outrageously humorous forever exists side by side.
