Publisher's Synopsis
This monograph of Lerooy's drawings, paintings, and sculptures surveys nearly 100 works from the vital years of his career. Thomas Lerooy Field Guide is an important monographic publication that brings together key works by the Belgian artist from 2006 until today. Rather than being a classic catalogue raisonné, the book is a field guide into the artist's practice, that establishes formal and conceptual links between works from different periods and in different media. The authors, Tatjana Bacal, Suzanne Hudson and Jean-Philippe Antoine, all renowned writers in the domains of anthropology, contemporary painting, and art history, each shed a light on Thomas Lerooy's work from their unique perspective. Distributed for MercatorfondsExhibition Schedule:TANK Shanghai Art Center (September 2024).
