The End Is Never Near provides a comprehensive overview of the oeuvre of the Belgian painter Jan Van Imschoot (°1963, Ghent, Belgium). His work is built around historical themes from literature and art history, and builds bridges to predecessors such as Caravaggio, Tintoretto, Goya, Manet, and others. The artist enters into a continuous dialogue with the past, in which he often focuses, with a dose of cynicism, on phenomena or fictions that are on the fringes of contemporary society. This monograph, which contains in-depth essays by Selen Ansen, Dieter Roelstraete, Alain Tapié and Philippe Van Cauteren, as well as an extensive conversation between the artist and Hendrik Folkerts, includes more than 200 works by Jan Van Imschoot.
