One seriously slick graduate catalogue from Dutch designer Dennis de Vries

Date
28 September 2012

We can only speak for ourselves here but none of us has ever seen such such a comprehensive and generous catalogue for a university summer show. Subform (aka Dennis de Vries) has done a pretty magnificent job designing the package for Minerva Academy of Visual Art and Design’s 2011-2012 graduate crop. You want to know a bit of background about the academy itself? No problem, there’s a piece of literature in there for that. How about all the different courses showing work? Sure thing, each one has its own personal catalogue. All of these beautifully printed documents come in a screen-printed cardboard envelope with a whole bunch of posters and an invite to the private view thrown in for good measure – which really puts a bog-standard catalogue to shame. Food for thought for next year’s summer exhibitors!
