Ten WT participants asked an equal number of Dutch graphic designers to join forces with them during their work period for the Chaumont Graphic Arts Festival in the summer of 2005. ‘Dutch Resource’ is a report of that collaboration; in ten different sections, each person’s working method becomes apparent and we are shown how the dialogue was put into effect. The book gives an accurate picture of the uncompromising practice of today’s graphic designer, a specialist and jack-of-all trades in one, who is not only meant to be a good designer but often works as a writer, researcher, editor, curator, critic and photographer as well. It shows work from: Lust, Mevis & Van Deursen, Julia Born, Roma Publications, Irma Boom, Maureen Mooren & Daniël van der Velden, Stuart Bailey, Will Holder, Experimental Jetset & Jop van Bennekom.
