The essays in this festschrift invite the reader to join in a rich and thought-provoking discourse. In addition to the many explicit examples of imitation and emulation, other more implicit, not immediately perceptible, forms of emulation are presented.

Robert Indiana
Robert Indiana (1928-2018) was an American artist associated with the Pop Art movement. The American dream, the promise of freedom, happiness and material affluence is the basis of his creative work. Indiana's eye-catching sign paintings are among the most radical expressions of Pop Art and take up the aesthetics of advertising and consumerism, building bold icons from numbers, letters and forms. This publication presents Indiana's classic work in its full breadth on the basis of selected examples and provides evidence of the shining significance and enormous presence of his most famous work, ?Love?, in his oeuvre.kunst

Piet Mondrian – Barnett Newman – Dan Flavin
Piet Mondrian (1872-1944), Barnett Newman (1905-1970) and Dan Flavin (1933-1996) belong to very different generations, but they have in common a rigorously ascetic approach to abstraction. Their intellectual, spiritual and social visions also differ significantly, but each experimented with more representational forms in their younger days, before arriving at a distinctive abstract modality from which they did not deviate for the rest of their careers.kunst
