Anne-Mie Van Kerckhoven is known in European art circles for her interdisciplinary practice that combines drawing, painting, computer-generated images, video, film, lightboxes, text and exhibition designs. She has traditionally been linked to a new generation of multimedia artists whose installations explore the spaces and imagery opened up by 21st-century digital technology, as well as to the counter-cultural movements of body art, performance and music scenes. This catalogue is the first to focus on the aspect which has grounded her whole practice since the mid-1970s: the diary-like drawings. Over the last thirty years, the drawings have provided the basis for the entire development of her ideas and aesthetics that result in large-scale thematic projects or films. The catalogue also gives an overview of all the artist's films and drawings from the 1970s to today. English, German, French and Flemish text.
