”Max und Moritz“ Awards 2016
25. April 2016
25 titles nominated for the ”Max und Moritz“-Awards 2016
”Max und Moritz“ Lifetime Achievement Award for Claire Bretécher
Special Jury Awards for „Katharsis“ by Luz and for avant-verlag


The “Max und Moritz“ Awards, the most important awards for graphic literature and comic art in the German-speaking countries, will be presented during the 17th Erlangen International Comic Salon 2016, which is sponsored by DATEV for the first time this year. Twenty-five titles are nominated by the jury and the audience, seven out of the ten laureates will be announced on May 26 during the “Max und Moritz” Gala. Claire Bretécher is the first woman to receive the „Max and Moritz“-lifetime-achievement-award. With this significant honour the jury would like to recognize the highly influential French comic artist, whose work has affected a wide audience far beyond France and the comic realm.

A Special Jury Award will be presented for “Katharsis” by French illustrator Rénald Luzier alias Luz. The book, published a few months after the deadly assault on the editorial team of “Charlie Hebdo”, represents an unsettling document of the fear and terror instilled during the time after the attack. Berlin-based avant-verlag receives the second Special Jury Award for its outstanding merits in the preservation of cultural heritage. Since 2001, avant publishes comics and graphic novels – „Eternauta“ by Héctor Germán Oesterheld (1919–1978) and Francisco Solano López (1926–2011), an adaptation of Dashiell Hammett’s „Flypaper“ by Hans Hillmann (1925–2014) and Rodolphe Töpffer’s (1799–1846) „Die Liebesabenteuer des Monsieur Vieux Bois und andere Geschichten“ are only a few titles amongst the recent publications.

The complete list of nominations for this year’s awards combines 22 titles suggested by the jury as well as three additional publications, which were selected in an online poll by the audience. Based on this list, the jury will present the “Max und Moritz” Awards on Friday, May 27, 9 p.m. in the following categories: "Best German-language Comic", "Best International Comic in German", "Best German-language Comic Strip" and "Best Comic for Children".

The laureates in the categories “Best German-speaking Comic Artist" (5000 Euro endowment) and "Best Student Comic Publication" (1000 Euro endowment) will also be announced together with the "Audience Award" on the night of the award ceremony. This year’s “Max und Moritz” Gala will be hosted by Hella von Sinnen and Christian Gasser.
