»His Drawings were sometimes provocative, often ›rude‹, but always imbued with a sense of tenderness for the follies of human existance. His pictures and texts managed to be caustic and warmhearted at the same time. His sense of the absurd, combined with the quality of his drawing, created the unmistakable Waechter touch.«New Books in German
