Rijk geïllustreerd en met essays die focussen op de brede waaier aan werkstrategieën van de kunstenaar, is Spilled Milk het eerste uitgebreide overzicht van het oeuvre dat Hilde Overbergh de voorbije acht jaar uitbouwde. De kunstenares was 19 jaar oud toen ze vanop de hoek van Bryant Street en 15th Street in San Francisco The Vats zag, een vervallen en verlaten plek, repetitieruimte en crashpand van de lokale punk scene. De energie intrigeerde haar. Al deze destructie en vrijheid werden de ...
