Mentor: Guido de Boer
As an artist and designer, Guido is perpetually creating images that one can read as well as texts that one can experience visually. His work is large, monumental, always handmade – freehand – with brush and ink. But that does not mean that his art is less graphic. His designs have a hypnotic – challenging the viewer – effect through their rhythmic brush strokes. Guido’s works can be viewed in several Dutch museums and more than a few private collections.
Guido has exhibited in several Dutch museums, such as: Kröller-Müller Museum, Kunstmuseum / GEM Den Haag, Wereldmuseum Rotterdam, Kunstlinie Almere Flevoland, STRAAT Museum Amsterdam and at the Boijmans Business Club.
Guido has worked for a number of clients, such as: Melkweg Amsterdam, Nationaal Glasmuseum, Het Nationaal Instituut Rotterdam, Ministry of Education Culture and Science, WWF, Mont Blanc, WeTransfer / WePresent & The Next Web.
Guido teached at several schools, art-academies and institutes around the world, such as: Typomania Moscow, Nanjing University of Arts, Central Academy of Fine Arts, Beijing, Shanghai Normal University, TUMO Yerevan Armenia, Novy Museum St. Petersburg, Graphic Days Torino, Tretyakov Gallery Moscow & Beyonderground festival Belgium.
