Eddie Martinez

...has a solo show in NYC at the moment. Just in case you're in the area.


If not, check out his work here.


It's nice to see Eddie's progress in painting the past years, he's been a busy busy boy. Check out this collage he did in my sketchbook, 10 years ago already...What's up Eddie! Time flies, we grow old.

Husk Mit Navn

Good thing about having a book out is that you can swap it with other people. Happy to get a little package from Denmark, with 2 Husk Mit Navn's books in it. Tak! I really like them.


One book is a collection of comics he did for the newspaper "Politiken" and I really like how he fluently uses a personal style for any type of work, posters, drawings, graffiti or exhibitions. Talking about exhibitions; Huskmitnavn & Lydia Fong 25.03 >01.06.10 @ Alice BXL. Lydia Fong, now that doesn't sound Danish does it?

Check Husk Mit Navns work here. God idé, jeg er meget sulten.

"It's a happening"

An informative piece of television, brought to all non-Danish-speaking people of the planet through Youtube (switch on the subtitles in the right-lower corner). It's about the Central Station of Copenhagen, which has been going through a renovation some time ago and Per Buur, the Chief Inspector. During the construction they discovered the fully furnished temporary (well, 4 years) home of Adams and Itso, and the beautiful story around it.

It's touching to see the Chief Inspector really being amazed by the whole thing, which makes sense since it's so well done, so detailed and with so much love and attention it's almost scary...especially knowing it wasn't meant to be discovered at all.

L'art pour l'art, but different. Adams & Itso-style.

Here is some other work by Adams.

Thanks to Niels for finding and sharing it.

Their oldschool silkscreen-poster-style meets Flash-animation, I like!

Happy 2009

"Inspired" by the large amount of end-of-year-lists, here is my list of random photos from 2009. Sorted by month for your viewing pleasure.

Let's give a new meaning to the word "random" in 2010!

Have a good one.

Rens Muis / 75B

Some time ago I swapped a silkscreen-print or two with Rens Muis of Dutch graphic design superstars 75B. For some reason I forgot about posting this, but how appropriate it (still) is; the iconic logo-tree from 1998, reminding us what Christmas and the true Christmas-spirit really is about.

R.I.P. David Levine

David Levine died at 83. I have been a Levine fan for a long time, after getting to know his work around 1996/'97 when doing an exchange-study at SVA in New York.


Not only did I love his famous pen and ink-style caricatures (who didn't he portray?) but also his water-colors were a feast for the eye. His work always had a timeless quality that will be kept alife simply because it will be visible through so many artists' caricatures showing that David Levine touch.

To me David Levine is the personification of a genre.

An extensive gallery (over 2500!) of caricatures he did for The New York Review of Books is visible here.

"Frank" by Jim Woodring...and others.

Some CRAZY re-interpretations of Jim Woodring's Frank, by Japanese animators. Check this one below by DROP INC., and check the others in the youtube-links on the right.



thanks, Nielzer

Joakim Dahlqvist

Check out the AMAZING drawings by architect Joakim Dahlqvist, something he seems to enjoy doing as a side-job...Archigram goes pencil-microcosmos, in a Google-maps sort of way.

A decade of FLYING LOTUS

A special Christmas-gift from Brainfeeder. Thanks for this mix; a fantastic (and rare, previously unheard) collection of Flying Lotus-tracks, mixed by the ever-onpoint Gaslamp Killer, for your ears' pleasure. Get it here, or go to Brainfeeder. You will never ever need anymore Christmas gifts after you listened to this one.

LIGHTHEARTED PLEASURE

Very happy with my copy of "Lighthearted pleasure", a very touching, personal, humble AND beautiful zine made by Eindhoven's finest offline influential; Captain Crack and his Powerblastmovement a.k.a. Erwin Thomasse a.k.a. ET.

The zine is a homage to his mother that died of Alzheimer disease.

Get it here, support!








OH! En nog meer Erwin Tomasse t/m 31 December:

"Work in progress/ LIGHTHEARTED PLEASURE
A temporary gallery and workspace by Yorit Kluitman & Erwin Thomasse"

Bergstraat 33 Eindhoven, zeker even binnenwandelen...

Michiel Schuurman

Check out the work of Michiel Schuurman, a very talented designer that to me finds a beautiful way of doing quite low-profile but high standard work, working manually and crafty (almost to a technical extreme) with the computer and using silkscreen-printing. Very complex, yet very straightforward without losing the communicative aspect. Go see.
