Who has not heard of design icon Nijntje/Miffy? A creation by Utrecht illustrator, graphic designer and writer Dick Bruna (1927), and widely loved from Utrecht all the way to Tokyo. Yolanda van den Berg is the curator of the dick bruna huis and will be our guest on the 20th of June (that’s this Friday). 

Tickets are released monday at 10 am for this Friday the 20th of June. The dick bruna huis displays a permanent representative selection of Dick Bruna’s oeuvre. Yolanda will talk about the work Dick Bruna made during his long career (and still makes). She will tell us all about famous Nijntje and the other characters like Poppy Pig, Boris Bear and the little dog Snuffy. But also the work he did for “Zwarte Beertjes” paperback and his more abstract work. 

Ofcourse Yolanda will talk about the choices she makes as a curator for the dick bruna huis. Her own view on his work and the designs that inspire her. And how she translates the educational vision of Dick Bruna into an appealing display for kids as well as their parents.

Tickets are released monday at 10 am for this Friday the 20th of June.
