Fier

admin — Sun, 09 May 2010 02:53:16 +0000

Fier is a collaboration of myself and 3 classmates : Anouk Joosten, Len Rooth and Rozemarijn Hooij. In the summer of 2009 we participated in the Arte Na Leira art festival in Portugal. We made a series of weather resistant typographic posters with materials such as latex, tape and tyraps. The posters were hung in the garden of the festival space.

From me to you

This catalog is a continuation of the K. Schippers poster series. Every third year graphic design student made two posters visualizing a quote by the Dutch poet and writer K. Schippers.
‘The shortage of imagination upholds reality.’
This catalog compiles those posters along with a text by Rob Giampietro titled ‘Form Giving’. The title of the catalog From Me To You refers to the idea that the posters and text are sharing knowledge to the reader.
When browsing the catalog only the posters are visible because the ‘Form Giving’ text is hidden in the folded pages. Once the pages are torn open the text can be read.
