26. A Controversial Conversation Around Priests And The Catholic Church.

Well, this illustration might make many people out there very angry, but the truth is that it starts (or continues) a very important conversation around religion, priests, and the continuous accusations we’ve all probably heard of.

But in typical Haderer-style, the drawing may come out as a little bit harsh to some so we’re just going to leave this one out there for your own interpretation

27. Government Chambers Have Become Useless And Disgraceful.

Here goes another criticism to the (lack of) government leaders we have in our societies, and unfortunately, as overemphasized as it may be, this situation may be too common worldwide.
Government Chambers Have Become Useless And Disgraceful
GerhardHaderer
In fact, political debates have become a sort of joke between certain politicians, and government meetings have become worse than house parties, just as the artist illustrates in this particular drawing.

28. A Bright And Individualistic Future Ahead Of Us.

Haderer points towards a very particular theme in his work which is centered around people missing out on real-life when they’re stuck to their screens.

A Bright And Individualistic Future Ahead Of Us
GerhardHaderer
The artist may have seen a bit of a futuristic scenery where people will no longer worry about spending time with each other or even fighting for what to watch together, each person will simply get their own TV or screen.

29. ​A Supermarket In Ghana Swallows A Local Woman With Cheaper "Euro-Tomatoes".

This picture brings up so much, and such disappointing feelings towards the fair trade of goods in the agriculture world and how cheap supermarket prices continue to swallow local vendors.

In this picture, the woman is selling her local tomatoes while in competition with the cheap price of European tomatoes, which may be a much worse quality than hers.

30. Some Are So Hungry For Money That They Might Choke On It.

This one seems to be a pretty self-explanatory one. Haderer seems to be making a not-so-subtle criticism towards businessmen who never stop being hungry for more and more money.

GerhardHaderer
This picture shows greed and perhaps warns us that the more one chases money, if karma works, the more one has a chance of choking on it and eventually becoming ill or even dying from it.

31. The Whitehouse Is Full Of Dirty Flies Coming From All Corners.

In this picture, Haderer surely makes us think about the previous or current White House situation, which depending on one’s political beliefs, can be pretty controversial.

The Whitehouse Is Full Of Dirty Flies Coming From All Corners
GerhardHaderer
In the illustration, a swarm of flies is heading in different directions, and we can pretty much sum up what the artist is telling us. Where are flies easily found? Exactly, on the trash.

32. A Criticism To The Suffering And Battery Of Farmed Chickens.

Well, this one is pretty hard to look at, especially if you’ve gone down the lane of educating yourself with the way the food, particularly, the meat and poultry industries work.

In the illustration, Haderer seems to be making reference to the battery of farmed chickens and the atrocities that they are put through in order to give us eggs and chicken.

33. ​No More Fish In The Sea, Or No More Sea For The Fish.

These people seem to be mourning the passing of the last fish found on earth. This is a reminder that global warming and the constant destruction of our environment will slap us in the face.

Though the signs continue to prove to us that one day we might all face drought or floods that will eventually be the end of us, many still ignore the important subject.

34. When Screens Take Over A First Date.

Yet again, Haderer may have chosen an exaggeration to illustrate the modern dating habits of the 21st century, the artist may not be too far from the truth.

When Screens Take Over A First Date
GerhardHaderer
This couple could very well be on their first date, and instead of actually enjoying their time with one another, they are either on social media or telling their friends about the awkward date.

35. The Holidays Have Become Banal And Sad.

And once again we’re back to a sad illustration of what some couples out there may do to celebrate the holidays. Many people love the holiday season, and well, who doesn’t like getting a nice present from a loved one?

GerhardHaderer
Sadly though, this couple resembles what many have become during the holiday season, with the holiday often just passing by while we’re stuck to our screens.

36. The Irony Of Dreaming About Another Car While Wasting Our Lives Away In Traffic.

We ask ourselves, how insane is it that this is our life? So many of us spend hours commuting in traffic while our life is wasted away, and like this guy, we continue to dream about things we can’t.

GerhardHaderer
The irony though is that he is dreaming about a sports car that he would never be able to use in that traffic.

37. A Pen Is Mightier Than A Sword.

Have you ever heard the famous saying: 'The pen is mightier than the sword'? Well, it seems like Haderer is referring to something very similar with this one.
A Pen Is Mightier Than A Sword
GerhardHaderer
It could mean that that together we could overtake guns or maybe, it could be profound in the sense that education is one of the best tools to combat violence and terrorism in the world.

38. Drones Are The New Equivalent To Living In The Truman Show.

Think about it, would you ever tolerate someone jumping over the fence of your house and taking pictures of you? Well, if not, then this drawing is a good reminder that drones may as well do exactly that.

GerhardHaderer
Though the debate around the use of drones has been intense and controversial, something about this illustration really brings up the fact that we’re living in a "Truman Show."

39. Living Obliviously In A Life Of Luxury.

As with many of his drawings, Haderer brings us another brutal illustration that is prone to different interpretations. On the one hand, we could just be looking at a couple enjoying their luxury life on a boat, while those who are not so fortunate approach them for what seems to be a harsh time.

GerhardHaderer
The reference to the cupcakes and the luxury surely strikes pretty harshly.

40. The Office Goes Everywhere, Including The Bathroom.

Here goes another illustration that may bring up everything that is wrong with the work culture that we have created around us. There are no breaks, people work overtime and do what they’re told - we live to work, we don’t work to live.

The Office Goes Everywhere, Including The Bathroom
GerhardHaderer
In the drawing, the men depict exactly that, as they can’t even sit on the toilet without sending that email.

And what then would you call evolution?

Any evolution that takes away the power of reasoning/ self is harmful to the society and not quite beneficial to humanity.
