Marc Eemans

Marc Eemans was a Belgian painter, poet and art historian, one of the pioneers of constructivist abstraction.

In 1925, Eemans joined the Surrealist artists Dali and Magritte, with whom he held joint exhibitions. And soon the poet's fame eclipsed his success as a painter. In 1930, Eemans made his debut as a poet in Vergeten te worden: 10 lijnvormen, beïnvloed Door 10 woordvormen. Influenced by Symbolism, he calls his poetry "gnostic surrealism". In 1938 he publishes a collection of poems, Visioen Woli, and others.

His artistic and political stance during World War II led to a break with Magritte and others.

In addition to poetry collections, Eemans wrote essays on a variety of subjects, including modern painting and architecture.
