Item: Untitled (For Jef)
1968
Sculpture, 50,5 x 50,5 x 8 cm.
Materials: Mirror glass and aluminium
Collection: Formerly Jef Verheyen and Dani Franque collection, now Jef Verheyen Archive.
A canvas with stainless steel reflectors, by Hermann
Goepfert. A composition with mirror surfaces, by
Christian Megert. A sculpted torsion form, by Walter
Leblanc. Unlike his colleagues, Verheyen does not
experiment with mirror, glass or steel. He paints in
oil on burlap and sticks to the two-dimensional
canvas. All these works nevertheless have one
thing in common: they are in constant dialogue
with the light. Verheyen and the ZERO artists invite
us not to stand still and stare, but rather to move
past the works. In that way we activate light and
space and become part of the work.
