The Power Of Paper Vol II (2024)
THE POWER OF PAPER

Forwart Gallery Antwerp

Armeduivelstraat 6

October 23 – November 30, 2024

This exhibition highlights the transformative power of paper through the work of two distinct artists. Guy Leclef, a self-taught artist, redefines and transforms recycled paper into compositions that speak to impermanence and renewal. Johannes “Jan Jr” Schoonhoven, following the legacy of his famous grandfather, Jan Schoonhoven, masters the art of papier-mâché, creating sculptural forms that play with light, shadow, texture and space. Together, they reveal the extraordinary artistic potential of a humble material, turning the ordinary into powerful visual narratives.
