The Dutch artist Erik van Lieshout works with video installations, paintings, and drawings. With his acute powers of observation van Lieshout analyses day-to-day reality in our current, confusing times. In a dizzying game of political correctness and incorrectness, he provides razor-sharp comments on sociocultural reality.

This book is the artist’s first comprehensive monograph, published on occasion of his exhibitions at the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen, Rotterdam; the Kunsthaus, Zurich; and the Lenbachhaus, Munich.
