Erik van Lieshout+Kelley Walker



US-born Kelley Walker (Columbus, Georgia, 1969) and Dutch artist Erik van Lieshout(Deurne, 1968) share a common interest in the mechanisms of the mass media. Working from different perspectives, both artists make work in which imagery from popular culture forms a central theme. The current exhibition shows a joint installation made by the two that fills the entire space with a combination of videos, painting, drawings, sculpture and screen prints. This will be Kelley Walker’s first presentation in the Netherlands.
