“Das Leben nach dem Amt”

About this Collection

This collection from the German series 'Baumann & Clausen' explores the lives of two former government officials navigating the challenges and absurdities of retirement. Published by Design-Werkstatt Borgwardt, the volume presents a satirical look at post-political existence, blending humor with social commentary.

A quiet, character-driven story set in a small German town, "Das Leben nach dem Amt" follows a former civil servant adjusting to life after retirement, exploring the subtle shifts in routine, identity, and connection. The issue is a thoughtful, visually cohesive work by Betina Borgwardt, who handled writing, art, inking, and lettering, with her distinctive style shaping the narrative’s introspective tone.
