Wall posters, in the style of China's Red Guard movement, abound-most of them signed "Love" or "Peace" and bearing such timeless messages as "Gypsy come home-your mother is pushed out of shape...
...earlier works, which stress religious subjects or Berlin's raucous cabarets, this rural cycle focuses on ordinary workaday existence, together with a few of the Nordic trolls and hobgoblins native to Schleswig-Holstein.

And everywhere, plump wide-eyed children...
