Willem van Genk (1927-2005), one of the most important self-taught artists of the twentieth century, designed a powerful universe that is populated in all splendor by airships, trains, trolley buses and other means of transportation. His cityscapes are impressive, his bus station is brimming with power and energy. This monograph attempts to provide an insight into his work, through an introduction to the artist's library and a detailed description of his creations. The Museum held the first major Van Genk exhibition in the United States in Fall 2014. The exceptionally beautiful works of Willem van Genk make this book a treat for its readers.
