Gert Dumbar (1940) is one of the most influential—and colorful—graphic designers from the postwar design field, both in the Netherlands and abroad. As a young partner in Tel Design, he designed one of the most iconic symbols in the Dutch public domain—the logo for the Dutch National Railways. Since then, he has opened his very own Studio Dumbar, working on a wide range of projects for an enormously varied clientele, from avant-garde theaters to the central government, from hospitals to multinationals. Gert Dumbar: Maverick Gentleman of Dutch Design considers this fabulously versatile oeuvre in its time and context and examines the various roles Dumbar played: artist, provocateur, “design director,” student, teacher, cultural initiator and mediator. An abundance of sketches from the studio’s archives are included in the book, providing insight into Dumbar’s process and his gift for engaging talented young designers.
