As many of you might know, at the end of 2022, we (Niels Goovaerts from Atelier t and yours truly) got a scholarship from the Flemish government to enter into our own expert-level letterpress learning programme led by Thomas Gravemaker (Letterpress Amsterdam). The practical lessons will be taking place between the workshop at the Museum of Industry in Ghent and Atelier t in Bierbeek. With a 3-day course every two months, accompanied by assignments and reading.

Sunday type walk in Pressing Matters magazine
Look, Ma! I'm In The Paper! Honoured to be featured in the recent issue of Pressing Matters magazine with my typographic journey through the city of Ghent. The city I moved to 20 years ago as a student, where I immediately felt at home and haven't left since then.

3. Exhibitie ‘Rosart, revival van een lettersnijder’. Jacques-François Rosart werkt tussen 1740 en 1759 in Haarlem als lettersnijder. Dit doet hij vooral voor de lettergieterij van Johannes en Izaak Enschedé. Hoewel hij veel mooie letters ontwerpt wordt hij in zijn eigen tijd niet echt gewaardeerd. In deze tentoonstelling kijken hedendaagse typografen en onderzoekers nog een keer naar zijn oeuvre en komen tot een herwaardering. Het resultaat: een nieuw inzicht in deze begaafde autodidact en een digitale wedergeboorte van verschillende, ruim 250-jaar oude, lettertypen - link

Workshops at the Atelier t in Bierbeek (BE)
Atelier t is an artistic print studio in Bierbeek, near Leuven (Belgium). The studio was founded by Katleen Vereecken and Niels Goovaerts. In the spring of 2022, a new, spacious and well-equipped print studio was built. Three quality proofing presses are available, as well as an extensive collection of lead and wood type. A small library completes the set-up.
Atelier t is an open workspace for slow printing. You are most welcome for letterpress printing and other techniques. You can follow one of the workshops or come up with your own project, for which we offer tailor-made guidance.
