Between 2018 and 2023, Dutch artist Hilarius Hofstede created a series of hundreds of collages, or papiers collés, in which he combines pre-existing images sourced from diverse media such as advertisements, postcards, and album covers. Blending art historical references with nods to Dutch history and global pop culture, they form an original and visually arresting body of work. The book presents more than 200 of these collages, published for the first time and showcasing Hofstede’s inventive approach. At once provocative and deeply engaging, his imaginative compositions tackle grand themes – nature, psychology, cosmography – with wit and surprising insight.
