Edith Doove (De Standaard, 10 maart 1999) The drawings of Marc Maet too have an intensive effect. Purposefully hung high on the walls, they actually force one's attention. It's a bizarre series of nice pictorial quotes and ideas, refering to artists like Picabia, Zurbaran, Beuys, Araki, but also Magritte. Maet regularly assumes the role of the painting critic of the Belgian art scene.  

The point of absolute freedom and not giving a damn for conventions... Beautiful! (A note from Marc Maet in the visitor's book, April 1999)
