UNFOLLOW THE LEADER
Book Launch – 2 April 2026 — 18:00�Library of Sint Lucas Antwerpen�Van Schoonbekestraat 143
In a culture driven by speed, visibility, and algorithms, what does design mean today?
Unfollow the Leader reflects on the evolving role of graphic designers in a world shaped by digital platforms, economic forces, and artificial intelligence. Developed within an educational context and rooted in student work, the book examines the tensions between craft and technology, autonomy and dependency, and tradition and disruption.
At its core, the idea is that design is not about form, but attitude—the willingness to question what seems self-evident.
Conversation moderated by�Jan Stuyck�Director, Centre for Art Archives Flanders
With�Christophe Clarijs — lecturer�Tess Ego — alumna�Claudia Cuypers — student�Hugo Puttaert — editor
The exhibition is open from Monday to Friday, 23 March to 8 May 2026, from 08:30 to 16:30.

Artist Jo De Smedt takes over the legendary De Ziener Gallery!
Step inside Atelier Heksenketel, where Jo De Smedt unveils a bold and razor-sharp body of work built over three decades — from 1994 to 2025. His universe stretches from underground comic arts and dark poetry to haunting World War I relics. Expect striking visuals: drawn, printed, painted — mostly black & white, with wild bursts of color.
This is an artist at the peak of his powers. Don’t miss the chance to experience this intense and uncompromising work in person.
