Alexis Keunen (1921 - 1990) 'Infinity of Time and Space' - 1958

Oil on canvas. Dimensions: 162x114cm. Total: 118x3.5cm H: 165.5cm. Belgian surrealist artist, friend of René Magritte. Born in Liège in 1921-1989. Alexis Keunen places himself at the centre of his attention, dedicating himself entirely to his destiny. He has the means to concentrate his inner attention on objects that offer him metaphysical or poetic possibilities. There is a quality of space in his paintings that suggests that the "existing" object is also called beyond its existence to signify and to be. We are in a universe where things respond to each other beyond the logic of their material substance. Numerous exhibitions in Belgium, Italy, the Netherlands, France, Germany, and Morocco.
