Welcome to this journey through the oeuvre of the Belgian painter Jef Verheyen. We think you will enjoy this multifaceted portrait of an artist with a profound eye for both material and light.
“Decreasing light is increasing darkness. Increasing light is decreasing darkness.”
Jef Verheyen, 1959
“My life has been a permanent dialogue with light; actually a rather nice title for a book.”
Jef Verheyen
“Jef Verheyen was a painter. His tool was the paintbrush, his material paint, his medium light, his inspiration the visible, and his chief precision instruments his eyes and his mind. […] Verheyen painted an essential distillation of his vision, a perfume of the visible, and his paintings offer their viewers possibilities of seeing something new, remembering things forgotten, and experiencing things they have never experienced before.”
Dirk Pörschmann, 2010
