Books
With my books, I want to bring together people who would never have met without me. That’s why I created the series INTERNATIONAL BROTHERHOOD OF…. Each volume is published as a DIN A4 illustrated book, giving every participant two pages: one for text and one for images.
On the text page, you briefly introduce yourself and tell a story connected to the book’s theme. On the image page, your portrait is featured. This way, each book becomes a meeting place of stories, faces, and experiences.
Participants can also use their contribution to spotlight a business or charity they care about. My goal is simple: books that aren’t just read but lived – works that connect people through stories, humor, and the occasional spark of truth.
Postcards
The books take time to write and publish. But the covers are already finished – and they’re too good to hide away. That’s why they’re available now as postcards on my Ko-fi page.
You can order them as a large economy pack – 128 cards in DIN A6 or 64 cards in DIN A5 for €125. Or, if you prefer something more personal, support me with €15 per month and receive a postcard with a stamped greeting in your mailbox every month.
Postcards are small, but they carry the same idea as the books: connecting people, sparking conversations, and maybe even making someone smile in a world that often forgets how.
Fine Art Prints
Some art belongs on a wall, not in a drawer. The book covers are also available as fine art prints, ready to become part of your everyday surroundings. Available in DIN A4, DIN A3, DIN A2, DIN A1, and DIN A0, each print is produced with high-quality standards that do justice to the artwork.
The pricing is straightforward: €125 per bundle
- DIN A4: 32 prints
- DIN A3: 16 prints
- DIN A2: 8 prints
- DIN A1: 4 prints
- DIN A0: 2 prints
All prints are available via my Ko-fi page. Whether you’re decorating your home, giving a meaningful gift, or simply enjoying a piece of art that speaks to you, these prints carry the same message as the books: art that connects.

IBOME – INTERNATIONAL BROTHERHOOD OF MEATEATERS
IBOWOT – INTERNATIONAL BROTHERHOOD OF WOODTURNERS
IBOJOLO – INTERNATIONAL BROTHERHOOD OF JOKELOVERS
Description
Food is more than fuel – it’s memory, culture, and occasionally the glue between strangers. With the INTERNATIONAL BROTHERHOOD OF MEATEATERS, I bring together people from all over the world to share two things: who they are and the meat dish they love most.
Each participant introduces themselves, explains how their favorite dish is prepared, and tells a personal story connected to it. Maybe it’s a recipe passed down for generations. Perhaps it’s the taste of a first date, a childhood Sunday, or a celebration.
This book isn’t about recipes alone; it’s about identity. And yes, like all Brotherhood books, it also offers space for participants to promote a business or charity close to their heart. The result? A feast of stories, flavors, and faces that together say: meat is culture, and culture connects us.
Description
Woodturning is an art of patience and precision. I first discovered it in an open-air museum and was hooked instantly. Yet my living situation made it impossible to set up a workshop. The savings I once put aside for a lathe instead became the foundation for Heinrich von Blanco Publishing.
The INTERNATIONAL BROTHERHOOD OF WOODTURNERS is my way of turning that missed opportunity into a shared one. Here, woodturners from around the world can introduce themselves, show their workshops and lathes, and present the pieces they’ve crafted.
Each page is both a showcase and a handshake – a place to honor tradition and the people who keep it alive. I hope that the proceeds from this project will one day allow me to set up a workshop of my own. Until then, this book is proof that even what you lack can become a gift to others.
Description
Laughter is universal. It’s the sound of connection, of relief, of shared humanity. The INTERNATIONAL BROTHERHOOD OF JOKELOVERS celebrates comedians and the people who love them.
In this book, participants introduce themselves and then share either a favorite story from a performance they attended or an anecdote from the stage if they’re comedians themselves. Humor doesn’t always translate across borders – but the experience of laughing until your stomach hurts does.
And just like in the other Brotherhood volumes, contributors can also use their page to promote a business or charity. What emerges is a book that’s part scrapbook, part stand-up, and part tribute to the role humor plays in keeping us sane.
Because occasionally the best way to deal with life’s absurdities is to laugh at them together.

About us
Founder’s Bio
Artist, Entrepreneur, Capitalist, Seeker of God
Art to me is blending resilience and creativity to make something meaningful. I like to think of myself as a devotee to the deeper layers of life. I’m sharing with the world all the ways art has shaped my life and accompanied me through the firewalk of challenges.
My personal struggles are, in fact, what led me to the stage at the beginning of my journey as an artist. I found solace and growth through stage acting, which empowered me to shed crippling shyness and a lingering depression that had been throwing me out of rhythm with my own personal truth.
Read more about the founder
The stage is where I found freedom of expression, and although acting played a crucial role in helping me overcome social anxiety and connect with people in a meaningful way, the spotlight brought a different set of obstacles. People began recognizing me in day-to-day life and as much as I appreciated these respectful and pleasant interactions with audience members, it became clear to me that I still wanted the ability to blend into a crowd unnoticed. So, I decided to shift to a different medium – one that allowed me to remain low-key while still collaborating with fellow artists and sharing something valuable with the public.
A piece of my heart will always be left on the stage but I’ve discovered a deeper passion behind the scenes. Fine arts offers me the freedom to leverage a broad range of interests while collaborating with interesting people across the world to bring inspiring projects to our generational thumbprint of art’s history in the making.
My dream is to stroll anonymously down the street, witnessing strangers connect over their shared love for my artwork. It would be one of my greatest accomplishments to see friendships flourish among individuals who may never have crossed paths if it wasn’t for my artwork. I believe the greatest gift you can bring to the world is a catapult for connection, something we all deeply crave.
So if you’re here, I hope you join me on a journey of bringing people together to dig for the truth through art. May the Heinrich von Blanco legacy encourage us to put our signature on this era of earth’s timeline in a way that is impactful and unforgettable for generations to come.

Brand Story
IT TAKES A VILLAGE TO CREATE AN ARTWORK.
But let’s not forget, behind every masterpiece, there’s a legion of unsung heroes doing the heavy lifting.
The artist may wield the brush, but it’s the folks behind the scenes who run this community we live in that make it all possible.
There’s a debt owed to those who pave the way for such creative privilege. I thank you!
MEET HEINRICH VON BLANCO - A STUDENT OF LIFE’S DEEPER TRUTHS.
Is creativity synonymous with freedom?
Heinrich Von Blanco has found liberation in creative expression. He creates thought-provoking and issue-probing pieces for people who prefer their art with a side of meat and banter.
His modern take on medieval archetypes express a lighthearted approach to big issues. He has used art as a means of transmuting personal struggles, connecting with like-minded individuals, and raising awareness on issues that are overdue for change.
Heinrich Von Blanco believes in reciprocity and the power of unity. He dreams that his art will make a positive impact by bringing people together in a meaningful way.
CREATIVITY REQUIRES COURAGE.
The world wants us to be sheep, mindlessly copying and pasting without a second thought, while we bury our true selves under layers of conformity.
But here, in this backyard barbecue where truth seekers gather to chit chat about changing the world, we hold onto our idealism like a closely guarded treasure.
At some point in your life, you may have felt the suffocating weight of society’s expectations, maybe you feel it right now.
A pressure that can crush your spirit and stifle your hope, know this: you’re not alone.
We’ve all been there. You’re here because you need to remember that every human is born with a creative spark, a gift that fuels us during the challenges.
Your creativity might manifest differently from mine – some solve problems, others express themselves through movement or words. But don’t let the world snuff out that fire within you.
Here, you’re welcome, regardless of who you are. As long as you’re kind and genuine – you’re in.
May the art you find here not only shine through creative works but also in the connections you make and the faces you may one day meet from this community.
A RENAISSANCE OF TRUTH IS EMERGING.
The time has come to dig deeper and uncover the truth buried beneath the surface.
Every voice holds the potential to shake things up and change the game.
Art? It’s life’s tale, woven through the ages.
So, what’s our next chapter going to be?
