Dutch graphic designer Richard Niessen (1972-) produces brightly-colored silkscreen posters featuring riotous compositions of form and type. Niessen graduated from the Gerrit Rietveld Academy in Amsterdam in 1996 and has been a member of the Alliance Graphique Internationale (AGI) since 2014.
This poster is part of a project Niessen initiated in 2015 called "The Palace of Typographic Masonry," which he describes as "an (imaginary) institute for the splendour and variety of graphic languages."
