About Tuyo
As a self-taught painter and printer maker, the German artist David Schmitt, chosen to work under the moniker Tuyo. His work inhabits a wonderful naive aesthetic that to himself feels like a crossover between Folk, Pop, and Cave art. With a focus and love of tactile textures and rough shapes he is able to capture timeless simplicity with his bold visual presence and commentary that feels human.

Destination: The Holdout, Alcobaça, Portugal
The Holdout is an art residency on the Silver Coast of Portugal, just north of Lisbon, brought to you by the good people of Andenken Gallery. The land of little farms and epic coastlines, the home of giant waves and soft sandy beaches. The art residency opened its doors in 2019 and has hosted artists like Scott Albrecht, Cody Hudson, Alex Face, and others. The residency of Tuyo will conclude with the opening of a new exhibition.

ART AND TRAVEL

The Jaunt is the combination of the two best things in life: art and travel. We send contemporary artists on trips to create new experiences in a different environment. Because nothing is more inspiring than stepping out of your comfort zone.

SIGHT UNSEEN

With newly found inspiration and impressions from their trip, the artists create an artwork which we produce as a limited edition silkscreen print. You have the chance to pre-order the prints at sight unseen, before the artists go on their trip.

PRE-ORDER

Take part in the inspiration process of our artists, and pre-order a print. Support the artists on their trip and receive updates through their travel diary. Once the artwork is finished you will receive your new artwork at home.
