- Very beautiful and large relief print by Harry van Kuyk, founder of this special and labor-intensive graphic technique. In a very small edition, printed on thick paper, signed, numbered and dated in pencil. In excellent condition.
Dimensions: 65cm x 50cm (sheet)
The Nijmegen graphic artist and graphic designer Harry van Kuyk is the inventor of relief printing. For this, an extremely deep and high relief is printed on thick paper on a special press, without ink or paint: white on white.
Van Kuyk was trained in the world of typesetting and printing. Letter, word and typography are a common thread in his work. He bundled many prints in monumental editions. He provided many publications with a text. Each edition was produced in his own studio. The editions were small. The relief prints have been exhibited and collected worldwide.
Harry van Kuyk made a special contribution to Dutch graphic and book history. That contribution is of course best expressed in a book. That book has now been published.
