Cy Twombly
Cy Twombly (April 25, 1928-July 5, 2011) was one of America’s most important and influential painters of his time. Out of step with the American post-war art movements, his large-scale calligraphic paintings blur the line between drawing and painting. He is said to have influenced younger artists such as Anselm Kiefer, Francesco Clemente, and Julian Schnabel.

Zotheid (click on the images to zoom in)
For a while I used to cut out images and advertisements from newspapers and magazines which I later glued into little ‘inspiration’ books. I was looking for similarities in typography, form and function, as well as the effect of visuals. Glueing them together on double pages made me focus even more on the consequential dialog between the left and right pages.
Here are some pages from the first book that was originally called ‘Een zomerzotheid’ by Cissie van Maxveld, illustrated by Hans Borrebach. It’s interesting to see how well the different content can sometimes work together. For me this was a meaningful experiment; others might have seen it as a crazy hobby. (zotheid)

Eek and Erk
Getting inspiration is one thing, bad copying is something else. Especially if it is done in such a poor way. Above a table made of waste wood by Dutch designer Piet Hein Eek, under a bad imitation sold under the name Henk Piet Erk

Li Wei vs Yves Klein
Now that we are comparing…. great work by Li Wei, but of course we’ve seen that before as well. On a higher(!) level that is…
