Alongside a description of her latest installation “Buffets and Receptions” * and the texts she wrote for and in the works involved, Anne-Mie will talk about her reflections about the life of an artist as a contemporary utopia. Anne-Mie Van Kerckhoven of AMVK (Antwerpen, 1951) has been creating a body of work since the mid-1970s comprising drawings, texts, paintings, collages, films, and installations. She manipulates images of women—initially by hand and later digitally—to challenge the objectification of women and prevailing power structures. She explores subjects such as science, language, and artificial intelligence in an intuitive and unconventional manner, thereby creating a unique universe in which the dichotomies between chaos and order, logic and mysticism, and eroticism and technology are dissolved.
