a set of classic ‘anton beeke’ posters which i got hold of last week, including the top one for ‘toneelgroep amsterdam’ which i rank as one of his very best, the poster is beautifully printed in mat black and the blue rectangle is actually a UV gloss layer on top…
and here baove and below some of the striking posters he made for the ‘globe’ productions… my poster collection just got a bit better, thank you anton
nice cover for the NYT magazine special on ‘hacking’

some new work to start off the new year, the ‘nutcracker’ poster in a large backlit version, a fake ballet poster for a photography student friend, the brief was ‘make a picture which pokes fun at yourself’ she is quite a large girl and decided to make a ballet poster for herself, i really love the image and was glad to help her…
and the latest poster for the ‘ssst’ campaign for the ‘sugar factory’ nightclub, shown below (image by student marinus heuvelman)
these are some more of the amazing posters i saw last week (see previous post) from a dutch (as yet unknown to me) artist/designer called ‘chris lebeau’ who was active in the period in between the two wars, he was an amazing woodcutter and typographer, lebeau eventually died in a german prison camp near the end of the war… definitely someone who i will be doing some more research on this coming year… any tips on this fascinating figure are very welcome…
