In response to G58 Hessenhuis, Jef Verheyen<br />

and Englebert Van Anderlecht, at collector<br />

Hans Liechti's hotel in Grenchen, Switzerland,<br />

forge plans that would lead to the creation of<br />

the avant-garde artists' group The New Flemish<br />

School (1959–1965). The supportive role of<br />

gallery owner Hans Liechti can hardly be<br />

underestimated. Alongside important Swiss,<br />

German and French artists, he attracts a new<br />

batch of Belgian artists. After Lucio Fontana,<br />

Liechti is the second foreign art collector<br />

to acquire work by Guy Vandenbranden.<br />

From then on, Hans Liechti's collection<br />

includes many works by Belgian abstract<br />

artists. Part of his collection is now on display<br />

at Callewaert Vanlangendonck Gallery.<br />
