BENOIT

Belgian artist and illustrator Benoit van Innis (1960-2024) created numerous drawings and cartoons that were published in both European and American magazines, most prominently The New Yorker. From the late 1990s, he increasingly turned to painting,engaged with architecture, and was involved in various projects that brought together art and the built environment.

Benoit: Artist in Architecture is the first book to feature the artist''s collaboration with Belgian, Swiss, and British design firms De Smet Vermeulen, EM2N, jo taillieu architecten / advvt, Kraaijvanger Architects, Marie-Jose Van Hee, Robbrecht en Daem, noAarchitecten, and Sergison Bates architects.
