Kalligrafie
Yves Leterme (°1959) runs a studio in Sint-Kruis, a town very close to Bruges (Belgium). He spent more than twenty years trying to influence the lives and thoughts of Brugean adolescents by reading and explaining the works of classical authors like Virgil, Plato and Cicero. But since even Latin grammar fails to fulfill a man with sheer happiness, he now devotes all his time and energy to the fine art of calligraphy.
Being a freelance calligrapher, he takes on various commissions (lettering and artistic works) and produces free work when he feels like it. He loves to teach though, so since 2005, he tours around the world to give workshops and presentations.
Already at an early stage he devoted a lot of time developing his gestural style, for which he has gained international acclaim. Other typical features are his minutely drawn capitals and unusual compositions on richly textured backgrounds.
Throughout the years,Yves’ work has been selected for inclusion in many juried shows and his artwork can be found in museums and private collections. He’s the author of Thoughtful Gestures, the first book on gestural writing, and Litterae, the Latin collection.
