Bertram Haid

Bertram Haid (born August 9, 1964 in Innsbruck ) is an Austrian cartoonist .

After finishing compulsory school, Bertram Haid tried his hand at writing for hit bands before actively entering the music business in the early 1990s. As the frontman of the German rap project DIE BESTEN AUS DEM WESTEN , he achieved his first, albeit commercially uncomfortable, notable successes.

In 1998 he was discovered as a draftsman by the writer Elias Schneitter . The two spontaneously founded the cartoon project BAES . Since then, cartoons, caricatures and illustrations have been published under this pseudonym for various Austrian print media, such as the Tyrolean daily newspaper or the event magazine! Ticket, a brand of Ticket Express GmbH. Edition BAES, which Elias Schneitter operates from Zirl, also emerged from this collaboration. The concept of a low lectured edition is used.

Cartoons by Bertram Haid have already been shown several times in the context of exhibitions in the "Galerie der Komische Künste" in Vienna's MuseumsQuartier .

From 2007, Bertram Haid worked for several years as a comedy writer for the radio station Ö3 for the Ö3 Wecker .
