Benoît
Belgian artist and illustrator Benoît 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.
Benoît: Artist in Architecture is the first book to feature the artist’s collaboration with Belgian, Swiss, and British design firms De Smet Vermeulen, EM2N, JTA/aDVVT, Kraaijvanger Architects, Marie-José Van Hee, Robbrecht en Daem, noAarchitecten, and Sergison Bates architects. It offers insight into his creative exchanges with architects and traces the emergence of a shared, new authorship in the interplay of art and architecture.
Organised into four thematic chapters—titled Table, Space, Landscape, and City—ten of Benoît’s spatial works are presented in depth, each introduced by a descriptive text. Supplementing essays shed light on Benoît’s methods and craftsmanship. The volume is rounded out with an illustrated complete catalogue of Benoît’s entire art-in-architecture oeuvre.
