More than just a painter. Verheyen was an unfettered modernist, a late-called homo universalis and internationalist whose importance as a link between the Belgian and international art worlds can hardly be overestimated. The latter is certainly evidenced by the Liber Amicis, preserved in the archives and thus far never made available, in which Jef Verheyen gave his network of friends from home and abroad the opportunity to speak. The Liber Amicis has contributions from Piero Manzoni, Gotthard Graubner, Günther Uecker and Christian Megert, among others.
