Kak #[nn]

The bright blue cover of this 2004 Bries release sets a playful tone right away, presenting a rotund, turbaned figure rendered in a bold, cartoonish style — all done by the multi-talented Pieter de Poortere, who handled every aspect of the artwork himself. There's a cheerful irreverence to the design, with the chunky lettering of "Kak" bouncing above the circular vignette portrait. Fans of De Poortere's distinctive, loose linework will find plenty to enjoy here.
