The cultural hub Scheld'apen was home to an eclectic stream of artists, with over 1300 events occurring from 1998 till 2013. All those events produced a flux of visual communication and printed media. Artist Benny Van den Meulengracht-Vrancx and musician Bent Vande Sompele poured a selection of those graphical works into a book.
‘Graphic Design of Scheld’Apen’ is the result of two years of collecting, three archival residencies at Het Bos (the new home of the still existing Scheld’Apen organisation) and a short scanning residency at Frans Masereel Centrum. The book contains over 250 graphical works (flyers, posters and program booklets) from a variety of different artists, a preface by Pieter Willems and texts by Roel Griffioen and Pia Jacques.
'Graphic Design of Scheld'Apen' in collaboration with Het Bos, Art & Research/ Koninklijke Academie voor Schone Kunsten Antwerpen, Frans Masereel Centrum and TRIX. The book is published by Stockmans Art Books.
