Honored to be one of 8 ambassadors for @plantinmoretus museum this Summer. Other ambassadors: duo Charlotte Dumortier and Karen Spiessens, Dirk Claessen, Axel Goossens, Atelier 11 and Jasper Van Gestel.
The Museum Plantin-Moretus is the residential house of the Plantin-Moretus family which contains the publishing house – printing press. The oldest printing presses in the world are here. They bear witness to the first industrial distribution of knowledge and image. The rich art collection is located in the historical residence, including paintings from family friend Peter Paul Rubens. The residence as well as the printing establishment is on UNESCO’s prestigious World Heritage list.
We’ll be given carte blanche to interpret the museums great collection of woodcuts. You’ll be able to follow my process from inspiration to final result in my Instagram stories and @plantinmoretus socials. Make sure to check their huge collection for free at impressedbyplantin.be
