New: the sculptor Henri Caps
Welcome on the Website "Artists from Liege" (Artistes de Liège)
You
will find here a selection of plastician artists who are linked in one
way or another to the City of Liege or its Province. Some were born here
and have built their art and their life in this region, others have come
from other parts of the country or from abroad to settle here.
For the time being there are twelve of them presented on this website,
seven painters and five sculptors.
They are all still very active in their work today.
Whether young or experienced, all these artists are mastering their techniques
and have developed original and strong personalities. They deserve your
attention for the quality of their work and of their inspiration.
It is obvious that many other artists from and within Liege also deserve
to be presented to a large audience, but it has not been possible to increase
their number on the site for now.
Navigation through the website
Navigation is intuitive.
You have access to the list of artists with a click on the "Artists"
button at the top of the page.
All the pictures (except those of the artist's studio) contain a hyperlink
to a page presenting the work in a larger format, with title, year, etc.
You just have to click on the picture to open this page. Work titles that
are underlined and in italics in the texts also open these pages.
A click on the "Home" button takes you back to this introductory
page.
Finally you can change languages at any time by clicking on the flag of
the desired language.
Acknowledgement
I would like to express my thanks first to the artists themselves, who
have accepted to open the doors of their studios for me, to give me pictures
and press clippings. This website would not exist without their co-operation.
Moreover building this site has entailed a lot of tedious translation
and translation review work, for which I have been efficiently helped:
- for the Dutch translation, by Maryvonne Relick, Hans Hittenhausen and
Annita Joos;
- for the English translation, by Steve Ball;
- for the German translation, by Hanns-Martin Hunneshagen, Georg Glaser
and André Paquet;
- for the Spanish translation, by Ana Urbina, Javier Suarez and Aurelio
Cosio-Solis.
Sincere thanks to all of them.
I
wish you all a lot of pleasure in discovering this website.
