Jozef Cantré is a major artist of Flemish Expressionism. Trained at the Ghent Academy, he worked in wood, stone and bronze, and practiced woodcutting with a style combining geometric simplification and dynamic realism. His monumental works, such as public monuments and busts, illustrate this fusion of formal modernity and artisan sensibility. Cantré left a lasting imprint in Belgium and the Netherlands, both through his sculptures and his avant-garde illustrations.
