Biography: 

Belgian artist born in Brussels in 1923, died in 1996. He trained at the Académie des Beaux-Arts de Bruxelles, at the Académie de Saint-Joos-ten-Noode and at the Vrije Atelier de Sint-Lambrechts-Woluwe. His work can be placed in a neo-expressionist movement. Materials became important for him: he worked a great deal in gouache and made colours jump out of his canvas. He also used other techniques such as engraving and lithography.
