Lucien De Roeck: de l’affiche à la lettre, Racine, 2015

Information

French edition by Anne Carre (Author), Karl Scheerlinck (Author)
‘Graphic designer, typographer, illustrator and poster designer, this Belgian artist showed undeniable talent. The precision of the lines, the spirit of synthesis, the refinement of the line and the imagination confer on the work of De Roeck a character of a surprising modernity. Original posters, press cartoons, sketchbooks, paintings and drawings will allow the public to discover this artist who was also the teacher of Pierre Alechinsky and Jean-Michel Folon at the La Cambre school (ENSAV).’

Graphic design continues to be documented and an increase in individualised documentation and curated social media accounts are furthering our knowledge of design from a worldwide historic standpoint. I would not feel complete without the collected design that spans the shelves of my archive. It’s my identity, my passion and my hobby.
My lectures and workshops also help bridge the gap between academia and industry. Through my lectures and collecting, I strive to promote design as a ever-changing dynamic industry that has the power to shape and improve the world we live in.
