<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Grandfather had already commissioned portraits of his three eldest grandchildren. Yet the family tree bore new buds—Midori &amp; Albert are his later descendants who enriched his life once again with delightful joy. This portrait reflects a grandfather’s love, and is simultaneously a gift to his children, both parents of Midori and Albert. Perhaps he already had further generations to come in mind when he created it …</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>祖父より孫へ</strong><br><em>2019年</em></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">祖父様より既に三人のお孫さんの肖像画のお仕事を承っていました。その数年後、家族の木には新しいつぼみが咲きました—ミドリとアルベルトはその後生まれた孫でいとこ同士、大家族を喜びでいっぱいです。この肖像画は祖父様からお孫さんたちへの贈り物であると同時に、ミドリとアルベルトの両親であるご自身の息子と娘への思いもこもっています。あるいは、さらなる次の世代までのことまで心に思い描いていたのかもしれません …</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Flavia was still studying at that time and wanted to give her boyfriend Antonio a joint portrait for his birthday. As Antonio loves Japanese culture — among other things, anime and manga — this is how she found us. From her selection of photos, we chose images and composed them anew, creating a surprise gift.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">A few years later, I saw Antonio at the boarding gate of Naples Airport — until then I had never actually met him in person — and felt compelled to speak to him directly. We immediately sent a selfie to Flavia. Life can truly be full of surprises!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>ボーイフレンドへ</strong><br>2018年</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">当時まだ学生だったフラビアから、ボーイフレンドのアントニオに誕生日プレゼントとして共同ポートレートを贈りたい、と相談を受けました。アントニオは日本の文化 — 特にアニメや漫画を愛しており、そこで私たちを見つけたそうです。彼女から提案されたいくつかの写真の中から選んだ構図を新たに構成してサプライズギフトとしての作品が出来上がりました。</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">まさか数年後、ナポリ空港の搭乗口で偶然アントニオに会うことになるとは！それまで実際には会ったことがなかったけれど、制作過程で何ヶ月も見てきた顔。一目みた瞬間、顎が落ちるほど目を見開いたことを覚えています。アントニオもあ。。。っ！と見たこともない私の正体に気づき、私たちは早速フラビアに自撮りを送りました。人生は時として本当に驚きですね！</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><em><strong>Für meinen Freund</strong> </em><br><em>2018</em></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><em>Flavia studierte damals noch und wollte ihrem Freund Antonio zum Geburtstag ein gemeinsames Portrait schenken. Antonio liebt die japanische Kultur – unter anderem Anime und Mangas –, daher hat sie uns gefunden. Aus ihrer Fotoauswahl haben wir Bilder ausgewählt und neu komponiert – so entstand ein Überraschungsgeschenk.</em></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><em>Nach ein paar Jahren sah ich Antonio am Boarding-Gate des Flughafens Neapel – bis dahin hatte ich ihn ja noch nie in echt gesehen – und musste ihn sofort ansprechen. Wir haben direkt ein Selfie von uns an Flavia geschickt. Das Leben ist manchmal wirklich eine Überraschung!</em></p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Andreas wanted portraits of Rosina and himself – for themselves and for each other. So I was able to visit them in Munich and sketch them right away while eating pizza. They sat right in front of me and kept looking at each other lovingly. This familiar yet newly-in-love gaze after so many years together impressed me deeply. That’s how these two portraits came out – and they look over the edge of the frame, straight at each other,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>ふたりのために</strong><br><em>2017</em></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">アンドレアスから、ロジーナと自分の肖像画を自分たち自身のために、そして互いのためにと依頼されました。ミュンヘンのご自宅で手作りピザをご馳走になりながら、その場でスケッチ。私の目の前に座り、いつもお互いを愛おしく見つめ合っていました。そんな長い年月を重ねたあともなお、信頼に満ちて恋に落ちた頃ののように輝くまなざしは、私にとってとても印象的でした。こうして画面の端を超えて、互いに真っ直ぐに見つめ合っている二人の肖像画が生まれました。</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong><em>Für Uns Beiden</em></strong><br><em>2017</em><br><br><em>Andreas wollte gern Porträts von Rosina und von sich haben – für sich selbst und füreinander. So durfte ich sie in München besuchen und direkt beim Pizza essen skizzieren. Sie saßen wirklich so vor mir und schauten sich immer liebevoll an. Diesen vertrauten und frischverliebten Blick nach so vielen Jahren Zusammensein fand ich beeindruckend. So entstanden diese beiden Porträts – und sie schauen über den Bildrand hinaus, genau aufeinander.</em></p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>50th Birthday Gift for the Whole Family</strong><br>2022<br>(Continued from the Christoph Family) Bernadette, the wife of master carpenter Christoph in Munich, has eight — I’m not entirely sure, but certainly quite a few — siblings. When one sister has a wonderful family portrait, the other sisters want one too. So we received an inquiry from Frankfurt.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Judith wished for a complete family portrait from her husband Marco for her 50th birthday. Marco loves art too, and he is a collector himself. Only: they have three children — who do no longer fit in a single triptych! So we had to come up with a new concept.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The couple also wanted it as a gift for all the children, so that even later, when they grow up and move out, they can always take it with them. Something like a book — foldable and for browsing through. To save the bookbinders work later, we decided the best solution was to print as much as possible — all three sections — on one sheet of paper. That’s how this large, one-metre-fifty long portrait roll was created. Technically speaking, the printing process was the most challenging. During printing, Japanese paper is moistened, and it expands with the slightest pressure. Printing the sections exactly on top of each other was truly the highest craftsmanship and concentration. And so this long format remains a unique, one-of-a-kind family portrait.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I was allowed to visit the Hilgers family shortly after Christmas and study individual faces under the Christmas tree. Even the youngest child, Theresa, was already a true artist! We drew together. The next day, during a walk through the famous spa town, she told me a lot: that she already sells her pictures at school, how to deal with competition in class, how to calculate the price based on material costs and so on, and about quality differences in paper and colours as well as the artist’s responsibility for sustainability. I was deeply impressed by her bright and clear mind! Love and passion for art are what Theresa and Marco share.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">These two rolls found a place above their bed, and the photo of everyone on the bed beneath their own portraits is a great gift to us. Thank you!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>家族みんなのための50歳の誕生日プレゼント</strong><br>2022</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">（クリストフ一家の続き）ミュンヘンの大工マイスター・クリストフの妻ベルナデッタには、8人—正確な数はもう覚えていないが、とにかく大勢—の兄弟姉妹がいる。一人の妹が素敵な家族肖像画を持っていれば、他の姉も同じように欲しくなるものだ。こうしてフランクフルトからの依頼が舞い込んだ。</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">ユディトは、夫マルコに50歳の誕生日に家族全員の肖像画をおねだりした。マルコは芸術を愛し、自身もコレクターだ。二人の間には子供が3人もいるので、三連画にはもう収まらない！そこで私たちは新しいコンセプトを考える必要があった。</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">夫婦は子供たち全員への一生大切にできるプレゼントとしても考えていた—将来大きくなって独立しても、いつでも持っていけるように。まるで本のような、折りたたんでめくれるもの。後の製本の手間を省くために、できる限り多く—つまり3つづつのブロック—を1枚の紙に印刷するのが最善の解決策だと判断した。こうしてこの大きな、1.50メートルほどの長さの肖像画ロールが生まれた。実際に擦ってみて初めてわかったことだが、これまでで一番最も困難でチャレンジの必要になった作品となった。印刷の際、和紙は湿らされ、わずかな圧力でも伸びてしまう。それを正確に重ねて印刷することは、まさに職人技の極致であり、最高の集中力が必要だった。こうしてこの長いフォーマットは、唯一無二の家族肖像画になることだろう。</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">クリスマスの直後、私はヒルガース家を訪問し、クリスマスツリーの下で一人ひとりの顔をスケッチさせてもらった。末っ子のテレサもすでに本物のアーティストで、一緒に絵を描いてくれたのでリラックスできた。翌日、有名な保養地を家族みんなで一緒に散歩しながら、彼女はたくさんのことを話してくれた：学校で既に自分の絵を売ルコとができたこと、クラスの中で競争相手とどう付き合うか、材料費などから販売価格をどう計算しなければならないか、そして紙や絵具の品質の違いや、持続可能性に対するアーティストの責任についても。彼女の明るく透明な頭脳に深く感銘を受けた。芸術への愛と情熱は、テレサとマルコが共に分かち合っているものだ。</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">この2つのロールは彼らのベッドの上に額装され、それぞれの肖像画の下にみんながベッドに座って笑いかけてくれる写真は、私たちにとって大きな贈り物となった。ありがとう！<br><br><strong><em>50. Geburtstagsgeschenk für die ganze Familie</em></strong><br><em>2022</em></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><em>(Die Fortsetzung von Familie Christoph)</em>　<em>Bernadette, die Frau vom Meister-Schreiner Christoph in München, hat acht – bin mir nicht mehr sicher, aber auf jeden Fall eine Menge – Geschwister. Wenn eine Schwester ein tolles Familien-Porträt hat, möchte die andere Schwester das auch haben. So bekamen wir eine Anfrage aus Frankfurt.</em></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><em>Judith hat sich von ihrem Mann Marco zu ihrem 50. Geburtstag das ganze Familienporträt gewünscht. Marco liebt auch Kunst, und er ist selbst Sammler. Nur: Sie haben drei Kinder – das passt nicht mehr in ein Triptychon! Und so mussten wir uns nun ein neues Konzept überlegen.</em></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><em>Die beiden wünschten sich auch ein Geschenk für alle Kinder, damit sie auch später, wenn sie größer werden und ausziehen, immer mitnehmen können. Etwas wie ein Buch – faltbar und zum Durchblättern. Um den Buchbindern später Arbeit zu sparen, hielten wir es für die beste Lösung, so viel wie möglich – also alle drei Blöcke – auf einem Papier zu drucken. So entstand diese große, 1.50m</em> <em>lange</em> <em>Porträtrolle. Technisch gesehen war das Druckverfahren am schwierigsten. Beim Drucken wird japanisches Papier angefeuchtet, und es dehnt sich bei leichtestem Druck aus. Genau das, übereinander zu drucken, war wirklich höchstes Handwerkerhandwerk und Konzentration. Und so bleibt dieses lange Format ein einmaliges, einzigartiges Familien-Porträt.</em></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><em>Ich durfte kurz nach Weihnachten die Familie Hilgers besuchen und unter dem Weihnachtsbaum einzelne Gesichter studieren. Auch das kleinste Kind, Theresa, war schon eine richtige Künstlerin! Wir haben zusammen gezeichnet. Auch am nächsten Tag beim Spaziergang durch den berühmten Kurort hat sie mir viel erzählt: dass sie bereits in der Schule ihre Bilder verkauft, wie man mit der Konkurrenz in der Klasse umgeht, wie man wegen Materialkosten</em> <em>etc.</em> <em>den Preis</em> <em>kalkulieren</em> <em>muss, und über Qualitätsunterschiede bei Papier und Farben</em> <em>sowie über die Verantwortung des Künstlers</em> <em>für Nachhaltigkeit. Ich war sehr begeistert von ihrem hellen und klaren Kopf! Liebe und Leidenschaft zur Kunst haben Theresa und Marco gemeinsam.</em></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><em>Diese beiden Rollen haben über dem Bett Platz bekommen, und das Foto mit allen auf dem Bett unter den eigenen Porträts ist uns ein großes Geschenk. Danke!</em></p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Christoph is the very first collector of YUKI in the world. When we held our first exhibition in Berlin, we didn’t dare to hope that anything would ever sell. Back then, only artists lived in Berlin, and none of them had any money. Then one day, out of nowhere, I got a message: our „pictures“ had sold. The money was paid, the pictures taken away. But actually nobody at the Renate Comic Library knew who it had been. Many years later, at the Comic Salon in Erlangen, he was standing in front of the Jaja Verlag table – a huge surprise! Since then we meet once a year, alternating between the Comic Salon and the comic festival in Munich.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Through this commission I got to know not only his family, but also his work as a master carpenter in a lively Munich neighbourhood. Master Eder from Pumuckl – that’s how he speaks, and that’s how he laughs. A true original. My old fellow student in Bielefeld always saw a kobold in me. Is that a coincidence? Sometimes life is more magical than a creative TV series from the ’80s.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In winter, Master Christoph brought his family to Berlin, and we held a get-to-know-you drawing session in my studio. There Agnes discovered a jewellery box and became completely absorbed in it – so I could use that little moment to sketch her quickly. Bernadette enjoyed it too. While his pretty ladies tried out the jewellery, the master rolled his eyes.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Three heads in one picture would have been too cramped for us. So we suggested that each of them receives a portrait, so that the three can be connected, and that a triptych emerges in the end – but not simply along a straight line, but rather offset.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Our portraits really do hang in the Christoph family’s kitchen today. And we had no idea that more chapters were still to come…</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>クリストフ一家へ</strong> <br><em>2017</em></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">クリストフは、世界で最初のYUKIのコレクターです。ベルリンで初めての展覧会を開いたとき、何かが売れるなどとは、まったく期待していませんでした。当時のベルリンには芸術家しか住んでおらず、誰もお金を持っていませんでした。ところがある日、突然「絵」が売れたという知らせが届きました。代金は支払われ、絵は持ち去られていました。しかし、それが誰だったのかコミック図書館レナーテの誰も知りませんでした。何年も経ったのち、エアランゲンのコミックサロンで、Jaja出版社のブースに現れた大男クリストフ—嬉しい驚きとはこのことです！それ以来、私たちは年に一度、コミックサロンとミュンヘンのコミックフェスティバル交互に顔を見れるようになりました。</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">この仕事を通じて、私は彼の家族だけでなく、ミュンヘンの活気ある地区で指物師として働く彼の姿も知ることができました。プムックルのマイスター・エーダーにそっくり！私の学生時代の同級生は、当時いつも私の中にコボルトを見ていました。これは偶然でしょうか？人生はときに、80年代の創造的なテレビシリーズよりも不思議なものです。</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">ある寒くてくらい冬、マイスター・クリストフは家族をベルリンに連れてきて、私のアトリエで初顔合わせ&amp;素描のセッションをしました。アグネスが宝石箱を見つけ、すっかり夢中になっているその小さな瞬間を利用して、私は彼女を素早くスケッチすることができました。ベルナデッテも一緒にアクセサリーを試してにっこり。美しい女性陣がアクセサリーを試しているあいだ、マイスターは将来どうなることやらと天を仰いでいました。</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">一枚の絵に三つの頭は、ちょっと窮屈なのではと、そこで私たちはそれぞれが一枚の肖像画として完結した作品、その上で三人がつながり、最後に三連画（トリプティク）に、ただし皆が一直線に並ぶのではなく、少しずらしてダイナミックになるよう提案しました。</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">私たちの肖像画は、今も本当にクリストフ家のキッチンに掛かっています。 そして、まだ続きがあるなんて、そのときは知る由もありませんでした……<br><br><strong><em>Für Familie Christoph </em></strong><br><em>2017</em></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><em>Christoph ist der allererste Sammler von YUKI auf der Welt. Als wir unsere erste Ausstellung in</em> <em>Berlin hatten, machten wir uns keine Hoffnung, dass jemals etwas verkauft werden würde. In Berlin lebten damals nur Künstler, und keiner hatte Kohle. Doch eines Tages bekam ich aus dem Nichts eine Nachricht: Unsere „Bilder“ waren verkauft worden. Das Geld war bezahlt, die Bilder mitgenommen. Nur wusste niemand von der Comicbibliothek Renate, wer das gewesen war. Viele Jahre später, auf dem Comic-Salon in Erlangen, stand er dann vor dem Tisch des Jaja Verlags – eine riesige Überraschung! Seither treffen wir uns einmal im Jahr, abwechselnd auf dem Comic-Salon oder auf dem Comic Festival in München.</em></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><em>Durch diesen Auftrag habe ich nicht nur seine Familie kennengelernt, sondern auch seine Arbeit als Schreinermeister in einem lebhaften Münchner Viertel. Meister Eder von Pumuckl – so spricht er, und so lacht er. Ein Original. Mein alter Kommilitone in Bielefeld hatte damals immer einen Kobold in mir gesehen. Ist das ein Zufall? Manchmal ist das Leben zauberhafter als eine kreative Fernsehserie aus den 80ern.</em></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><em>Im Winter brachte Meister Christoph seine Familie nach Berlin, und wir veranstalteten in meinem Atelier ein Kennenlern-Zeichnen. Dort entdeckte Agnes eine Schmuckkiste und vertiefte sich ganz</em> <em>darin – so konnte ich den kleinen Moment nutzen und sie schnell skizzieren. Auch Bernadette hatte ihre Freude daran. Während seine hübschen Damen Schmuck ausprobierten, verdrehte der Meister die Augen und ich zeichnete.</em></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><em>Drei Köpfe in einem Bild wären für uns zu gequetscht gewesen. Deshalb schlugen wir vor, dass jeder ein Portrait bekommt, die drei miteinander in Verbindung stehen und am Ende ein Triptychon entsteht – aber nicht einfach auf einer geraden Linie, sondern leicht versetzt.</em></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><em>Unsere Portraits hängen heute wirklich in der Küche der Familie Christoph. Und wir ahnten nicht, dass noch weitere folgen würden …</em></p>
