Elzo Durt  Creates Underground Culture Through His Psychedelic Art

Elzo Durt was born in Brussels in 1980. Following an adolescence drenched in skateboarding and punk culture, he graduated in 2003 with a degree in graphic design from the Ecole de Recherche Graphique (GraphicResearchSchool) in Brussels – and began to flood Belgium with his psychedelic and punkoïd images. In 2004 he opened his art gallery – Plin Tub ‘- in Brussels, as well as his own publishing house – two opportunities to exhibit his artworks and those of his favorite artists. At the same time he became responsible for graphic communication at Recyclart, the mecca to the Brussels underground culture. Up until 2006 he was also the artistic director of Voxer magazine.

Over the years he established his reputation for designing posters and album covers for many different bands and labels – Thee Oh Sees, Frustration, La Femme, Le Prince Harry, Magnetix, Jack of Heart, to name a few . He also designed visuals for skate- and snowboards brands such as  Carhartt, Rome and Flip, and for clothing brands like Lacoste and Step Art.

Elzo’s cheerfully morbid universe can be seen today on magazine covers, festival posters, album covers, and newspapers such as Le Monde. With his works printed on silkscreen, he traveled all over Europe, and even crossed the Atlantic to exhibit his artwork in the United States.

A Jack of all Trades, Elzo, and his Parisian friend Froos, launched their own Music label Teenage Menopause Records in 2011, releasing records from, among others, JC Satan, Scorpion Violente and Le Prince Harry. This again provided him with an opportunity to pursue his greatest loves: designing album covers, organizing concerts and, above all, partying!

With an artistic training in figurative realism and a background in graphic design, my paintings unite my interest in the psyche as expressed through the human form and a personal graphic aesthetic. Thematically, my paintings address the complexity of memory, by blurring the lines between recollection, projection, and reality. Each painting becomes a psychological landscape or waking dream, reinforcing the fluid relationships between time, memory and place.

Wolfgang Weingart, born in 1941 in Germany, is a graphic designer and typographer with international influence. He was not only a Swiss Typographer, but he is credited as the father of “New Wave” or Swiss Punk Typography. He was very sufficient in the art of hand set type. Weingart taught for 37 years. During those years, Weingart taught many people who grew to make names of themselves. This list of students include April Greiman, Franz Werner, Jerry Kuyper, and Emily Murphy. Weingart’s work and teachings gained international influence. In 2013, Weingart received an AIGA medal for his work and teachings.

Above are a few of my favorite pieces that I came across during my search of Wolfgang Weingart’s work. Both can probably be described as busy and chaotic, but they both have an order to the mess that I admire. I can tell that each component has been ever so meticulously placed and handled. Each piece has a certain movement created. The black and white piece feels like it is consistently moving in a spiral motion. It reminds me of a fun house, where you are in the spinning tube and trying to get out. The individual letters are hardly readable, and yet this type still creates so much movement. The UCLA piece feels very “early digital era” to me. The bright colors and harsh edges really stick out. Weingart makes creating a good piece with lots of movement look so easy.
