Seit 2019 ergänzt das künstlerische Multitalent sein breit gefächertes Oeuvre aus Zeichnungen, Installationen und Keramiken um das Medium Film. Diese Publikation gibt einen Einblick in die Entstehung seiner erstaunlichen Filme und der wunderschönen handgefertigten Sets.In The Villagers betritt der Zuschauer Van de Veldes Welt. Eine wichtige Rolle spielen dabei die siebzehn lebensgroßen Pappkulissen, an denen er zwei Jahre lang gearbeitet hat. Zu einer abstrakteren Ausdrucksform entwickelte sich die Erzählung in La Ruta Natural. Für diesen zweiten Film, einem surrealen Roadtrip, ließ Van de Velde eine Maske anfertigen, die seinem Gesicht ähnelt. Sein jüngster Film, A Life in a Day, ist introspektiv und zeigt das Innenleben des Künstlers. Das Ergebnis ist eine intime und pure Entdeckungsreise, in der Van de Velde sich selbst aus der Distanz analysiert. Durch Personifikation, konstruierte Lügen und Aneignungen kommt er der Wahrheit über seine eigene Identität und sein künstlerisches Schaffen näher.Zahlreiche Standbilder, Zeichnungen, Skulpturen, Requisiten, Studio- und Ausstellungsansichten erwecken Van de Veldes Filme in diesem beeindruckenden Buch zum Leben, für das der Autor Timon Karl Kaleyta die Texte geschrieben hat.Die Filme werden zusammen mit Joachim Badenhorsts Soundtracks der Filme auf Vinyl veröffentlicht. 264 pp. Englisch.
