- 'Oublier de devenir' by the Belgian author and painter Marc. Eemans (Marcel Léon Marie Eemans, Dendermonde 16th of june 1907 - Brussels 28th of july 1998) was first published in Dutch in the 1930's. It's considered to be the first surrealist poetry to appear in this language. It is assumed however that these poems had been originally composed in French, but did not get published in any of the leading French-language literary reviews available at the time.
Readers already interested in Evola's youthful poetry (http://www.geocities.ws/raaga_blanda/) might be interested in reviewing Eemans' work. Here it must be taken into account that Dadaism and Futurism, unlike in Italy, never played an important role in Belgium, whereas surrealism would contain these avant-gardist tendencies.

P.s. As for Evola's paintings: it's interesting to compare them with the work of Victor Servranckx (also of Flemish extraction), whose 'organic' abstract paintings are in fact not devoid of mystical and religious connotations.
