Atelier Les Deux Garçons

Atelier Les Deux Garçons is the artistic joint venture of Michel Vanderheijden van Tinteren and Roel Moonen. In this book, they celebrate 25 years of creating together.

Their work is a mixture of taxidermy, bronze and objet trouvé; the results are collages that both enchant and bewilder. Their sculptures mirror the turbulence of our time, the struggle between humans and animals, the duality between beauty and confrontation.

With three essays by leading Dutch art curators, the book Atelier Les Deux Garçons shows us the themes that reoccur in the work of 'Les Deux', the urgency of their art, and the artistic evolution of their practice.

The works in the book have been carefully by the artists themselves. Together, the images make for a comprehensive overview of their oeuvre up till today. An oeuvre which is far from finished, as 'Les Deux' still abound with youthful energy and artistic drive.
