About
Thomas Spallek is typographer working between Düsseldorf and Porto. His work includes a wide range of formats and practices such as typography, type design, ephemera and editing as well as exhibition projects. His special love belongs to book design and typeface. Therefore he works in close dialogue with artists, institutions and galleries to translate artistic and curatorial work into the printed page. In his practice he explores ways to engage with textual and visual material through dedicating the use of typography and editing to the consequent interplay between form and content. Alongside commissioned work, Spallek continuously collaborates on investigative projects with other designers, artists and art theorists as well as pursuing personal projects. Since 2016 he attends the typography class of Prof. John Morgan at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf. Recent projects include: web design for Kunstverein für die Rheinlande und Westfalen; book design with Marcel Dzama and Sies + Höke, Be good little Beuys and Dada might buy you a Bauhaus; graphic design and artistic collaboration with Bik Van der Pol for the exhibition Mama, what is nature really? at the Kayser Wilhelm Museum in Krefeld; ephemera for Schinkel Pavillon; graphic identity, exhibition design and various catalogues for Kunsthalle Düsseldorf; editorial design for Arts of the Working Class.
