The Art of "Der Spiegel" by Stefan Aust

Front cover illustrations for Der Spiegel have a long history. Commissioned artists such as Braldt Bralds, Michael Matthias Prechtl, Dieter Wiesmuller or Rafal Olbinski rank among the best illustrators in the world. For five decades, their talent for illustrating current events and contemporary themes has helped to define Der Spiegel's look. Now for the first time, original illustrations and the corresponding magazine covers are included in a beautifully produced catalogue to accompany a current museum exhibition travelling to Hamburg, Berlin, Frankfurt, Dusseldorf, Munich and New York. 150 illustrations by sixty artists are featured along with biographical information by each artist and discussions of artistic approaches. A preface by Steven Heller, the Art Director for the New York Times Book Review opens the book and an interview with long-time Spiegel cover editor Eberhardt Wachsmuth completes the volume.

Stefan Aust is a journalist and editor living in Germany. He has been chief editor of Spiegel TV, and was chief editor of Der Spiegel in Hamburg from 1994-2008. Aust is co-writer of the film script for the German movie Der Baader Meinhof Komplex, which released in Germany in Fall 2008 and was
nominated for an Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film.
