Residence
The Netherlands

Education
1978-1981 Gerrit Rietveld academy Amsterdam

Olivier Julia came to the Netherlands as a young student to study graphic design at the Gerrit Rietveld Academy in Amsterdam.
Rietveld Academy in Amsterdam to train as a graphic artist. Since then, he has built up an extensive oeuvre in over 40 years.
