Mein Kampf - Against Racism
Award: Wood Pencil
Wood Pencil / Book Design / Trade Covers / 2016
Hitler’s “Mein Kampf“ (My Struggle), the Nazi propaganda book, can be published once again in Germany after its 70-year copyright expired – unleashing a debate in a country struggling against new right-wing extremism. On behalf of “Gesicht Zeigen!” – an association encouraging people to stand against racism – we are fighting back with a book: “Mein Kampf – against racism”! By taking the same title and layout as the original, we created a counterbook portraying strugglers against racism on 11 different covers. That way we reclaim the conception of the words “Mein Kampf” from the Nazis.
