Summary:
The first section of this publication reproduces an extensive selection from the variegated posters and programmes that Reitsma designed since 1990 for 84 different DNO productions. Entire pages from several programmes have been reprinted on the original paper. The second half presents earlier and other work by this designer made for other clients, predominantly from the institutional and cultural field. This includes exhibition catalogues as well as books on architecture and photography. This graphic diptych is separated by a text collage composed of statements by and about Reitsma. Contributions by art critic Paul Hefting and dramaturge Klaus Bertisch of De Nederlandse Opera, views expressed by fellow designers, quotes from the professional literature, newspaper articles and- last but not least- Reitsma’s own opinions provide a lively picture of the world of this graphic designer. The reader is given a good impression of the development in Reitsma’s recognizable work and the ideas from which it sprung.
