BIS Van Gogh Memory Game

163_bookpage_van-gogh.jpg

I recently got my daughter the Van Gogh memory game and discovered the world of BIS.   A really cool publisher and design company out of Amsterdam.   There are tons of great books on type, architecture, design, art, fashion.    A great sensibility.

Familiar subjects of BIS Publishers include graphic design, fashion, architecture, product design and advertising. BIS has earned a national and international reputation for prizewinning books for creative professionals and their clients. Well known is the prestigious series of Dutch Design books, which BIS has published every two years since 1990 in collaboration with the Association of Dutch Designers BNO.



Van Gogh Memory Game


Van Gogh is one of the world's most admired painters and the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam is definitely a must on every Amsterdam visitor's list. In collaboration with the Van Gogh Museum, BIS Publishers produced this creative Van Gogh Memory Game. 
Each set of cards consists of two different images from the museum's collection, together forming a clear theme and telling a little story about Van Gogh's oeuvre.
One set may therefore combine a little sketch from one of the Van Gogh letters with the actual painting, another set might combine two typical Van Gogh subjects like the Sunflowers, the Yellow House, the Sower and yet another set can combine two self portraits.
This memory game offers hours of fun and creates a deeper understanding of Van Gogh's works. All the sets contain a brief explanation and credits in a folder in the box.
It is the perfect gift for tourists and art lovers of every age.  (text courtesy of BIS Publishers)
