Das Parlament

In Das Parlament, Simon Schwartz crafts a single-issue graphic essay for avant-verlag that explores the architecture, history, and symbolic weight of the German Bundestag. Blending meticulous illustration with documentary insight, the comic turns the seat of democracy itself into a character, examining how space shapes political life. Schwartz’s work stands as a thoughtful, standalone meditation on the physical home of governance, offering readers a unique visual tour of a building that embodies both tradition and transparency.
