Hans Gremmen

Graphic designer, publisher and artist Hans Gremmen (1976, NL) has a special interest in the grandeur of the American landscape.

For the contemporary explorer that he is there is plenty of space left to discover, especially the sense of romance of the mid-nineteenth century expeditions expanding westwards, whose reports about railway construction resulted in a near-tangible ‘historical sensation’. Seen in this light it comes as no surprise that Gremmen focused on an exemplary painting by Thomas Moran, for his project Lookout Point, The Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone.
