Walter Leblanc
Walter Leblanc (Belgium, 1932–1986) was a pivotal figure in European post-war art, renowned for his contributions to kinetic and optical art. A founding member of the Antwerp avant-garde group G58, he introduced the 'torsion' technique, twisting materials like cotton threads and metal to create dynamic works that engage light and movement. Leblanc's innovative approach earned him international recognition, with his works featured in major exhibitions and collections worldwide.

What is the Zero Movement?
ZERO was an art movement founded by Otto Piene and Heinz Mack, aiming to develop into a large international and cross-border movement. The name ZERO originated from a magazine founded by Heinz Mack in 1957, which became a platform for the group's ideas. The magazine was published for several years before ceasing in 1967. The ZERO movement sought to create a new beginning in art, emphasizing light, space, and movement, and became influential in post-war European art.
