“The range of expression in Family Matters is similar to that of a young person coming to terms with his own family history – harsh criticism, misty-eyed sentimentality, perverse parody, and nuanced understanding all abound, though not necessarily in that order.”

“Type. A Visual History of Typefaces and Graphic Styles, Vol. 1 Edited by Cees W. de Jong, Alston W. Purvis, and Jan Tholenaar Taschen just released this awesome book covering pre-20th century typography from 1628-1900. Type nerds all over should be drooling. via Taschen”
BASTER (Bas Koopmans 1981, NL) is a very busy man. He has been like this since the first time we met, working on his own practise years before earning his Bachelor degree in Graphic Design (Utrecht School of the Arts, 2004).

Norman McLaren – Dots (1940)
Norman McLaren’s early experiments with film and animation included actually scratching and painting the film stock itself, as he did not have ready access to a camera. His earliest extant film, Seven Till Five (1933), a “day in the life of an art school” was influenced by Eisenstein and displays a strongly formalist attitude.
