Here 2015 Speaker Profile: Wonderful illustrator Jordy van den Nieuwendijk

Date
23 April 2015

The countdown to Here continues apace and today we’re turning our attention to Jordy van den Nieuwendijk. The past few years have seen a dizzying rise for the Dutch artist and illustrator. In an astonishingly short space of time he’s emerged as one of the most exciting, prolific practitioners working today, clocking up a client list which includes the likes of The New York Times, Bloomberg Businessweek, Lacoste and Vogue.

Although consistently embracing a bright colour palette, his practice evolves almost as quickly as he can discover new media, and his name has become synonymous with the dynamic, graphic, happy work that he loves to make, and we love to see.

As well as Jordy, this year’s Here speakers are digital guru Iain Tait, Grand Budapest Hotel graphic designer Annie Atkins, ManvsMachine’s Mike Alderson, designer-turned-artist Scott King, photographic duo Blommers Schumm, karlssonwilker’s Hjalti Karlsson and SHOWstudio editor Lou Stoppard.

We’ll also be welcoming set designer Anna Lomax, graphic designer Charlotte Heal and Nathan Cowen and Jacob Klein, the brains behind Haw-lin.
