Matej Gábriš
Graphic designer, artist, and founder of the studio.
He has been developing his passion for creating security documents and his proprietary artistic concept since the late 1980s. Today, he is an internationally recognized master of security design and the creator of the acclaimed GABRISNOTE® collectible banknotes concept, whose works are held by collectors worldwide, as well as representatives of national banks and museums.
Alongside this highly specialized printing creation, he passionately devotes himself to traditional printmaking techniques, particularly hand-carved linocut, and the creation of artist's books. In his studio, he combines uncompromising craftsmanship with an admiration for printing technologies and history.
Mgr. Henrieta Gábrišová, PhD.
Art historian, information specialist, and publicist.
At Artbook Garden, she acts as the expert eye, PR and marketing manager, and content writer. Her work focuses on the intersection of architecture, fine arts, and contemporary society. She closely follows cultural developments and events in her home region of Sørlandet, Norway, and contributes essays and reviews to the blog, seamlessly bridging theory and practice.
Thanks to her base in Grimstad and her active collaboration with the Slovak and Czech academic and cultural environments (including the platform Citace.com, where she works as a sales representative and lecturer), she serves as a cultural bridge between the Scandinavian and Central European scenes. Drawing on her extensive experience in publishing houses and libraries, she passionately seeks new partnerships, communicates with authors and the public, and manages copyrights. She ensures that behind every project nurtured within ArtBook Garden, one can see not only a perfect visual form but also its unique story and "roots." She writes, draws, and manages social media channels.
