Marco Klefisch / Ala Champfest

2DM illustrator kingpin Marco Klefisch’s was just featured in experimental Aussie/Brit mag Ala Champfest. Klefisch’s work was featured alongside an extensive interview on an eight-page spread where he mused on about the nature of his work and also talked at length about Wonder-Room, where he showed with Studio Fantastico in May.

Of the event, Klefisch recalled, ‘The show, titled “Mirrored,” was conceived in a small temporary space called Wonder-Room, an empty space which hosts these serial events promoted by 2DM / Management. They connect a young studio with an artist for a small exhibition based on a short selection of works. I based this show on my background production in relation to illustration. There was a good amount of interaction and I was happy about the final results on my photographic background work.’

Ala Champfest bills itself an “ever-relevant graphic and image-based journal magazine,” and fittingly features an awesome roster of graphic designers, illustrators and otherwise provocative image makers. Klefisch’s multilayered and thought-provoking work has otherwise been published in Vice, The End and tons of others.
