Jef Verheyen - Notebooks and Sketchbooks
Ensemble
Little notebooks were Jef Verheyen’s companions wherever he went: at various studios, during exhibitions, and on trips to Italy, Spain, France, Germany, and South America. They house long-winded ramblings, stream of consciousness, and accounts of encounters and events. And so, these booklets help reveal the artist’s growing network. But his other sketchbooks are littered and brimming with sketches and preliminary studies, with Verheyen’s notes in the margins to inform and enlighten.
