ABOUT
Guy Pieters was born in the artistic village of Sint-Martens-Latem, the cradle of Flemish expressionism. After making the acquaintance of the French-American artist Arman in 1979, he shifted his focus towards post-war and contemporary art, and opened his first gallery in 1981. In the next 40 years he set up several art galleries with his wife Linda at his side. Pieters’ success is mainly due to his lifelong collaborations with artists. Showcasing the masters of New Realism and Pop Art alongside future talents, Guy Pieters Gallery has gained a reputation far beyond its native Belgium. In his three seaside galleries in Knokke, he presents established works of art and organises magnificent solo exhibitions of renowned artists such as Karel Appel, Arman, César, Christo & Jeanne-Claude, Niki de Saint Phalle, Jim Dine, Jan Fabre, Jean-Michel Folon, Robert Indiana, les Lalanne, Pavlos, James Rosenquist, Mimmo Rotella, Julian Schnabel, Keith Sonnier, Jean Tinguely, Koen Vanmechelen, Bernar Venet, Jacques Villeglé, Tom Wesselmann and many others. Over the years, Guy Pieters has edited a number of books, including the catalogue raisonné of Yves Klein. Guy Pieters Gallery was present at the Venice Biennale in 2017, where Jan Fabre’s works were exhibited at l'Abbazia di San Gregorio. In July 2018, Linda & Guy Pieters opened their Foundation in Saint-Tropez, the crowning achievement of their long career.
