Description

'The fall of the concrete monstrosity that was the Wall is my motivation for making this journey. I want to hear and feel, in all those languages, what holds us together, as well as what we totally fail to understand in each other.'

Do we actually know who the 'Europeans' are? What connects and divides them? In this book, bestselling photographer and journalist Lieve Blancquaert goes in search of the roots of our identity. As if writing a diary, she records colourful stories that reveal the complexity, diversity and beauty of Europe.

This is an impressive and exhilarating account in words and images of her epic journey across Europe, from Stockholm to Naples, and from Bordeaux to Athens, in which alongside her photos, Lieve Blancquaert also details her thoughts and experiences.

The book is a collector's item, luxuriously designed with coloured page edges: a true feast for the eyes.

At the same time as the book, VRT Canvas is also launching a series of the same name, and the accompanying exhibition at Mechelen Cultural Centre runs from 14 March to 30 June 2024, as part of the city festival Construct Europe. The book will be supported by a VRT campaign.

With an introduction by Hendrik Vos.
