Artist Profile
Van Orten
Limited Edition Movie Posters & Art Prints
Van Orton Design operates as a twin artist collective based in Italy, comprising Marco Van Orton and Stefano Van Orton who work collaboratively under the V.O.D. moniker. The duo has established significant gallery relationships, most notably with Spoke Art, which offers their limited edition prints exclusively through their San Francisco and New York locations. Beyond the alternative movie poster scene, Van Orton Design has built an impressive commercial portfolio working with major brands including Armani Exchange, Sisley, ESPN for the New York Knicks, and Maxibon, demonstrating their versatility across entertainment and fashion industries.
Their artistic approach combines bold geometric compositions with rich color palettes, as exemplified in their striking interpretation of the Coen Brothers' Fargo. This 16x24 giclée print showcases their ability to distill complex cinematic narratives into compelling visual statements that capture the essence of acclaimed thrillers. Van Orton Design has also created work for the Apolide Festival in Turin, indicating their engagement with both international film culture and their local Italian arts scene. Their portfolio spans music industry collaborations, including artwork for Italian rapper Jake la Furia, highlighting their cross-media artistic range.
Collectors particularly value Van Orton Design prints for their limited availability and meticulous production quality. Their Fargo poster, produced as a 100-piece edition through Spoke Art, represents the type of highly sought-after release that defines their market presence. The combination of Italian design sensibility, exclusive gallery partnerships, and carefully controlled edition sizes has positioned Van Orton Design as a premium choice for discerning alternative poster collectors.
