Famed for his way of working with colour, structure and form, the artist became interested in interdisciplinary collaboration at an early stage. In 1994 and 1999 he was commissioned by former director Frans Haks to design colour palettes for the interior of the new Groninger Museum building.

  • Propaganda
    It’s here again. Scoffed at by those not featured, embraced by trendy clients and architecture’s taste police. Probably the least read Dutch best-seller: the Yearbook.
