Chez Schnabel – Anna Haifisch

The catalogue for the exhibition Chez Schnabel at the Museum der Bildenden Künste Leipzig is being published in conjunction with the 2021 LVZ Art Prize award. This is the first publication by artist Anna Haifisch to give an insight into her approach to making comics. The catalogue brings together sketches, references, haikus, notes, and the new short story 1992—a making-of account composed of wobbly animals, the artist entity, and autobiographical material. 

Anna Haifisch, b.1986 in Leipzig, is a comic artist. Her books have been published in several languages. She has drawn comic series for the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the French newspaper Le Monde, the US website VICE.com, and the Texte zur Kunst magazine.
