Atelier van Lieshout
Gruppo fondato nel 1995 a Rotterdam da Joep van Lieshout (Ravenstein, Belgio, 1963). Un gruppo autogestito di artisti, architetti, designers, tecnici, artigiani e agricoltori che propone un nuovo sistema di fare arte progettando strutture mobili per funzioni differenziate, oggetti, macchinari ed eventi. AVL Ville a Rotterdam è un villaggio organizzato come un libero stato a metà tra l'arte ambientale e il santuario.
