- This fonds contains, among others, also material related to Jewish artists, both Belgian and non-Belgian. We find documents on these artists dispersed over the entirety of the fonds, as they are often not the subject of specific files. The fonds consists various types of archival material, such as archives of artists, galleries, associations, editors, art critics, etc. It contains documents of a varied nature related to the visual arts such as correspondence, administrative documents, official forms but also photographs of artworks and documentary photographs, printed material, press cuttings, posters, audiovisual materials and some objects.
