Who is the greatest Belgian Artist?
Is it Ruebens, or one of the Breughels? The inventer of Duvel, Alechinsky, Herge, Simenon or Arno? Maybe it's Guido Gezelle or Panamarenko. Delvaux or Brel, Timmermans perhaps? Waterkeyn?

waarom niet / why not hugo claus? ![]()
Hergé too
Everyone Artist is always Greatest. If even he isn't clear for the most people, he is greatest by his own works full of a philosophy of a love or drama, romanticism, naturalism, epatage... It's creative, it's not comparable. ![]()
So, what the reason to greatest? Sport? Sex? Cooking? ![]()

I like Klinik, but they aren't really that well known to call them the greatest. Then I'd say Front242.

Claus is gestorven...:|
Is Brusselmans considered to be an artist?

I consider Brusselmans to be TV-pollution.
Claus, yes... he wrote the greatest collection of unread books.

I guess at this point I'd vote for Claus

Happy 2008 to everyone!
Looking at the amount of books that Claus wrote, I'll probably misjudge him while having read only one. So I won't judge at all.
@ Deng: I don't see Brusselmans on tv that much, but I just like what I have read from him so far. Although I can also understand why people wouldn't like it.

Jan Van Eyck lived and worked in Bruges for a while so i will choose him.
Rubens is great though, I like him a lot.
