Abstract

Erik van Lieshout first became known in the early 2000s for his visceral videos in which he often plays a central role, shown in environments of his own making: installations whose rough, bricolaged forms belie their sophistication. Whilst his immediate subject matter is often directly influenced by the political and social context of the Netherlands, van Lieshout's work provocatively raises issues that are relevant across Europe and beyond: immigration and integration, class and gentrification. Despite these weighty topics, his work can be outrageously funny, using satire to reveal the failings of our society. With equally brutal honesty, he explores his own failings, both as a human being and as an artist. In recent works, he particularly questions art's direct social impact and its potential to do good.

Abstract

Joep van Lieshout travels between the worlds of easy-clean designs and the non-functional area of art. His work offers pratical solutions to everyday problems : his self-developed "skull rooms" and campers, furniture and practical objects, sextoys and weapons are poised on the interface between high and low art. At the same time they are the objects of personal obsession, buildings and implements, which are the materialization of secret wishes. This book offers a survey of the creative powers of Joep van Lieshout (born 1963, Ravenstein), one of the foremost Dutch artists of the day. Piet de Jonge and Bart Lootsma provide a comprehensive introduction to Van Lieshout's thought-world. In addition the book contains numerous references for further study. For those who cannot afford to acquire a genuine Van Lieshout this book contains several clear, simple manuals providing the skilled handyman with a step-by-step guide to the (re)construction of the objects illustrated. Discover the secret wealth of modern living - together with Atelier van Lieshout.
