Hans Theys is a twentieth-century philosopher and art historian. He has written and designed dozens of books on the works of contemporary artists and published hundreds of essays, interviews and reviews in books, catalogues and magazines. All his publications are based on actual collaborations and conversations with artists.

(cfr. gesprek met Hans Theys, 17.06.2014; Boot = Scotch Gambit, Auto = Polistes?, basisconstructie heeft Panamarenko in 1970 gelast met zijn vader, papier Editions Bergeyk = niet gekend bij Hans, 1970 - 1975 = uitvindingen, toenmalig gebruikt papier?, in ieder geval papier dat Hans niet kent = zeer oud!)
