Blues was a group exhibition curated by Joost Vandebrug and shown at Ingrid Deuss Gallery in Antwerp, Belgium. It brought together seven pioneering artists from Iran, the United States, Belgium, Japan, Sweden, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom who each explore in their original and uncompromising way the historic photographic process of cyanotypes.

This catalogue, designed by Tina De Souter, is using Grand Slang Italic from Nikolas Type and was created to visually represent the artists and their art. The catalogue was printed in a limited edition of 300 copies. It has a unique cover with a fold-out where an overview of all the artists can be consulted easily. To put the emphasis on the tactile element of cyanotypes, the title of the book was embossed on the cover and a textured paper was used.

  1. Thank you for sharing!

    I’m still in love with this design.

    I adore how the swashes of the italic correspond with the cyanotype image on the cover.
