Better Donald Duck for President - Unlike populists and nationalists, artists like Thitz create positive ones! Although not everything being peace, joy and happiness in the "utopian civilizations", Thitz creates a kind of utopia, a parallel fantasy world. To this invented land Utopia(*) you should in the days of the writer Thomas More even having been able to travel in real time - but also within Thitz's detailed pictures it is possible to go on the journey, as you surf through the multitude of details you notice how the perception gets more and more entangled and you get into the inside of the Thitz-bags. And we're right in the middle of the "Utopian Civilization - A City in the Grass" ...

Once again, the one-artist show was THE highlight and this time also a culmination point for Thitz works. Due to the extensive presentation and the possibility to store further work in the booth at the fair, we could fall back this year on an exclusive selection. Thitz was even present at the booth on some days.

All in all, together with the gallery team, a record-breaking 18 screen works were sold at the fair this year.
