I'm in Ankara,
I prepare an exhibition in a local gallery. I am painting some of the
pictures here in order to simplify the shipping complications. I'm working on
two large anamorphic objects and sometimes I look into my laptop to check
what's happened in the world. I'm sad to read that Anthon Beeke, the excellent
Dutch graphic designer passed away. We met first time in 1992 in The Hague, I
was a guest of a graphic conference there. Of course I already new his famous nude
alphabet, his provocative theater posters (Troilus and Cressida, Leonce and
Lena) and I was surpised that he was familiar with some of my works too. He presented me a T-shirt in the pub
of Theatre Zeebelt. I often wore it, I liked to work in it. I also brought it
to Turkey, so if it's colder then I wear it. Yesterday the weather became very cold,
I took Beke's shirt and I still work in it today. This was on me when the sad
news came. Peace with you, dear Anthon. ... Beeke veled.
