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 />
