The directness of his decisive brushwork and his balanced yet audacious use of color is strikingly contemporary, while his work draws on historical themes from literature and art history. In this way, Van Imschoot engages in a continuous dialogue with the past, in which he, with a dose of cynicism, often targets phenomena or figures that find themselves on the fringes of (contemporary) society. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Bringing together more than 220 works by Van Imschoot with five accompanying texts, this book gives fresh insight into the painting practice of this Belgian master. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDistributed for Mercatorfonds\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Philippe Van Cauteren, Selen Ansen, Hendrik Folkerts\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0300266987\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780300266986\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Mercatorfonds\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/28\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 228\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.89h x 8.66w x 1.10d","brand":"Philippe Van Cauteren","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44070639927551,"sku":"9780300266986","price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ea2fe79b-58fd-4321-9e93-3da775565a14.jpg?v=1685431497","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/jan-van-imschoot-philippe-van-cauteren-9780300266986","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
