Bob Bonies and the Style
His work fits in with the ideas of the Bauhaus and De Stijl and Concretism.
These consisted of a connection between the visual, the pursuit of a new worldview and making the arts widely accessible. The essence of his work, mainly paintings and graphics, is a balanced and strict arrangement of concrete visual elements: shape (geometric), size (usually rectangular surfaces) and contrasting colors (e.g. red-blue, blue-white or blue-yellow).
Frans Molenaar was a Dutch fashion designer. From 1955-1958 he studied to become a tailor in Amsterdam. After his studies he did an internship with Charles Montaigne in Paris from 1959-1960 and worked for Gerard Pipart with Nina Ricci, also in Paris from 1961-1964. He achieved international fame as a couturier.
