Gerhard Haderer is back at the Caricature Museum Krems – bigger, sharper, and more uncompromising than ever! On the occasion of Haderer's 75th birthday, the Caricature Museum Krems is showcasing the majority of his impressive oil paintings for the first time, combining them with new cartoons and beloved classics from the master’s hand.
Satirical Precision and Social Insight
Gerhard Haderer is considered one of the most significant satirical artists in the German-speaking world. His works – known from renowned media such as stern and profil – are sharp observations and pointed comments on politics, society, and the everyday "madness." With fine irony and bitter comedy, the Upper Austrian exposes the absurdities of our time – from digital self-obsession to political hypocrisy. For his uncompromising work, he has been honored with the German Cartoon Award and the Golden Merit Award of the City of Vienna, among others.
Oil Paintings Over 2 Meters Tall
The anniversary exhibition at the Caricature Museum Krems highlights Haderer's artistic spectrum: in addition to new and well-known cartoons, visitors can expect to see Haderer's monumental oil paintings almost in their entirety. These artworks, reaching heights of up to 2.5 meters, take viewers on a satirical journey through the seasons – from a homage to Albrecht Dürer to socially critical jabs at selfie culture and traditional consciousness.
Scandals, Taboo Breaks, and the Church
The mostly photorealistic works, often signed "Hades," are not only entertaining but also provoke thought. The presentation from the satirical book "The Life of Jesus" illustrates Haderer's critical view of religious power structures. Additionally, his long-standing commitment to resistance in art is reflected in the "School of Disobedience" and the "Cactus Cartoon Award."
Curators: Gottfried Gusenbauer and Anna Steinmair
