Jan De Cock : Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis - Lannoo 2012
With Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, Jan De Cock has created a total artwork about today's culture of spectacle, consisting of two exhibitions, six books and a fictional story about the First Lady.
De Cock presents a number of characters, plots and landscapes, and examines ideas such as spectacle, saturation, consumption and imitation.

They are all improvised rejoinders to the show that is Jackie O..
