Van Meerssche, Jos

Van Meerssche's work is characterised by a hyper-expressionistic brutality. Nobody else could have painted those works; at he same time it is an oeuvre that doesn't go with the flow of modernisms or similar ism-less delicacies. Without openly flirting with the oeuvre of the French-Polish Jew, the work is connected to Soutine's - an extremely urgent expression not driven but anything than the love of painting.
