Dangerously Young is a thorough investigation of the meaning of being a child, and the function of youngsters in our society. According to various experts, children and young people are ‘in danger’. This book poses lots of questions to the reader: ‘Are there new dangerous trends and problems among the young? ‘How do artists depict and imagine the innocence of youth?’ ‘Are there situations in which the child can be a danger for the adults?’ This book deals with these themes, breaking boundaries and taboos. Text in English and Dutch. ILLUSTRATIONS:: 100 colour
