Atelier Van Lieshout (AVL), founded by artist Joep van Lieshout (b. 1963) in 1995, is a multidisciplinary art practice encompassing installation, design, furniture and architecture. The work varies from sculptures and furniture, bathrooms and mobile home units to large installations and complete architectural refurbishments. One of the many applications and techniques used by AVL are the large polyester constructions in striking, bright colours. These polyester constructions, of which the large mobile home units are the best known, form the AVL trademark. Recurring themes in the work of AVL are autarky, power, politics and sex. Works of AVL can be found in private collections and several museums.
