Rotterdam Boijmann Gallery Visit

Co Westerik


The description in the books talks about the artists day, almost as a diary. Allows he work to be viewed in response to his emotions. 
Video of him painting demonstrated a strong sense of working to his own needs and opinions. 
Details in the skin reflect interest. 

Bauhaus

Oskar Schlemmer:



- lithograph sketches
Simple design, appears almost musical due to shapes and lines. 
Colour palette compliments the shapes made in black. 

Joist Schmidt:

The presentation of word alongside shape is really interesting. 
The colour palette again similar to previous, adds lightness to an otherwise harsh image. 


Wayfinding in the exhibition space:

all link up all based off of a map (timeline). 

Lajos D'ébnett:

Collage cut outs, cut then stuck again, adds a sense of depth to the image not 2D while remaining in the frame 

Jettie Olivier:

Christmas and New Years cards
Love the colour palette, not traditional but consistent. 



Franz Ehrlich - invitation to Bauhaus carnival:


Dick Eiffers:


Paul Schuitema:

Poster for exhibition of international advertising design at stedelijk. 
Again collage and presentation of type. 



Here the formatting of 15 photos compliments all very well. Makes a mundane more interesting though simple formatting. 



Layout, use of colour. More sophisticated outcome, refined through type and colour palette.
