Visual artist, theatre and film-maker Jan Lauwers (1957) is best known for his theatre work with Needcompany. This book, which accompanies the Restlessness exhibition, concentrates on his visual work from 1996 to 2006.
"In a world that has revered to a 'superficial realism' in a bid to survive, Jan Lauwers uses words and images to mark out a singular territoy in which hysteria, the absurd, the inexpressible, freedom and disarray can coexist and even become one. Jan Lauwers deploys his well-rounded personality to create risky openings to spheres rendered invisible by our modern world."
