This publication exhibits the guiding principle so characteristic of Belgium's rich artistic tradition: breaking with convention owing to a Belgian receptiveness to all manner of influences. This 'unorthodox' story, in which - oftentimes roguish - recycling and parody led repeatedly to new syntheses, is an integral part of Belgium's art history that deserves to be remembered. Artists: Prosper De Troyer, Marthe Donas, Jozef Peeters, Oscar et Floris Jespers, Jan Kiemeney, Jules Schmalzigaug, Ossip Zadkine ao

Description

This publication offers insights into the lively arts scene during the interwar period, ranging from post-impressionism, passing through abstraction and expressionism, to the mixed forms characteristic of that time, with works by Jules Schmalzigaug, Marthe Donas, Oscar and Floris Jespers, Edmond Van Dooren, Jozef Peeters, Felix De Boeck, Jan Kiemeneij, Jos Leonard, Paul Joostens, Prosper De Troyer, Marcel-Louis Baugniet and Ossip Zadkine. In addition to two introductory entries, a sequential analysis of individual works will map out a reconstruction of this 'forgotten' period in Flemish art history.
