Atelier Van Lieshout New Tribal Labyrinth

This publication explores the eponymous on-going project of the Dutch studio Atelier Van Lieshout. This highly illustrated book features images from GRIMM’s Frans Halsstraat Gallery, an essay by Dominic can der Boogerd as well as images from Van Lieshout’s series New Tribal Labyrinth and Slave City. Sculptor Joep van Lieshout was born in 1963 in Ravenstein, The Netherlands. He is the progenitor of AVL-ville, a self-sufficient free-state in the port of Rotterdam named after the studio he founded in 1995. For three decades van Lieshout has produced work that straddles art, design, and architecture; sharing recurring themes of systems, power, life, sex, death, and the human individual amidst the greater whole.
