From the Streets to the Museum

Some of my signs are now in the Haus der Geschichte der Bundesrepublik Deutschland in Bonn, Germany’s federal history museum, as documents of the time in early 2024 when millions of people in Germany took to the streets against the AfD.

In the spring of 2025, my protest signs even won an award from the TDC—the venerable Type Directors Club in New York.
