Who?
‘Friends of Atelier José Vermeersch’ was created to sustain the work of Atelier José Vermeersch as a non-profit organization and promote the continued relevance of José Vermeersch’s work. As part of our mission, we want to transform the artist’s former workshop into a lively exhibition space that highlights artists with a unique vision. Your support and membership can form an important contribution to helping us realise this goal.

After four successful years, and with 130 Friends of Atelier José Vermeersch and counting, we are pleased to announce our festive programme for 2022. Starting in September, we will celebrate ‘100 Years José Vermeersch’ in grand fashion. This special event, organised with Westtoer and the Municipality of Lendelede, will include three exhibitions, the publication of a book spanning Vermeersch’s oeuvre, a website and documentary film (with testimonies) and a redesigned walking route. Your generous support in previous years has enabled us to continue to organise two exhibitions a year, as well as continue to develop the archives of José Vermeersch and preserve and restore his work.
The non-profit organization Atelier José Vermeersch is housed in the former studio of visual artist José Vermeersch (1922–1997). The studio and adjoining exhibition space were built in Lendelede between 1962 and 1970 and designed by the artist himself. Vermeersch sculpted, painted, and presented his works there until his death in December 1997. In 2010, the studio was made open to the public, becoming the new residence of the non-profit organisation Atelier José Vermeersch. 11 exhibitions have taken place there since.
Atelier José Vermeersch was born out of a twofold ambition. On the one hand, we aim to make the work of José Vermeersch accessible by housing the archive in the studio. Besides this, we want to organise exhibitions that highlight lesser or unknown aspects of his work. In this way we can explore the lasting relevance José Vermeersch’s oeuvre and give the archive and legacy a home in his own studio complex. On the other hand, there will also be room for separate exhibitions, sometimes framed by a literary, philosophical or musical activity. One to two times a year, well- and lesser-known Belgian artists will be given a platform, individually or in groups. With these exhibitions, Atelier José Vermeersch intends to become an exciting meeting place for artists and art lovers. As a ‘friend of the atelier’, you’ll be the first to be informed of these activities and enjoy various exclusive benefits. (Photos by unsalted)
