The book ‘René Heyvaert. Forever Closed’ highlights a series of artworks and letters by artist-architect René Heyvaert (1929-1984).
Heyvaert led a life that captured the imagination—but was far too short—and pioneered in various domains: architecture, collage art, drawings, graphic art, and the so-called Mail Art, through which the material and spatial form a dialogue with his immediate surroundings.
Personal letters and writings were published throughout the artist’s career in numerous leading literary magazines.
Artist-photographers Tim Onderbeke and Julie Poisquet delve deeper into René Heyvaert’s legacy. In this publication, they employ a refined figurative sequence, creating a dialogue between their photographs and René Heyvaert’s architecture and artworks. The unpublished letters to Kristien De Witte serve, as it were, as a common thread in the rich story shared by Heyvaert and his muse. IN DUTCH!
