Haefeli, who calls himself a \"quarterly painter\", appear surrealistic at first glance. However, on closer inspection, they rather reflect the spirit of Fantastic Realism. The roots of this style lie in German and Dutch Mannerism, in Art Nouveau, in New Objectivity, and also in Surrealism. Haefeli's paintings are characterised by only supposedly realistic fantasy spaces whose access must first be deciphered.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEach painting is juxtaposed with a page of text featuring poetic, (pseudo-)scientific, ironically pointed, or decidedly funny-absurd picture lines, quotations, newspaper clippings, and miniature stories. In this way, the enigmatic works of art are explained, supplemented, or even exaggerated caricature-style by yet another dimension. This entertaining, informative, or even confusing interaction is what makes this picture book so unique.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003ePoetry of the Incredible\u003c\/em\u003e is not just a collection of images; it is an exploration of the interplay between art and text, providing readers with a multifaceted journey through the imagination of Jonas C.
