Publisher's Synopsis
Second part of the fictional autobiography of artist Rinus Van de Velde
Rinus Van de Velde (1983) is one of the most intriguing contemporary artists of our time. He gained recognition for his monumental charcoal drawings, but his oeuvre now encompasses a wide range of media, including installations, film, ceramics, and pencil drawings.
Using all these diverse forms, Van de Velde continues to work on his fictional autobiography, in which he blurs the boundaries between reality and imagination.
A Fictional Autobiography II offers an impressive overview of his recent work, with special attention to his virtuoso use of charcoal, pencil, and oil pastel.
Featuring a text contribution by the American author A.M. Homes.
