| | musée des Beaux-Arts de Charleroi, Paul Delvaux |
 | | Inhabited by narcotic creatures, totally indifferent to each other, Paul Delvaux's painting seems to be the work of a person who grew up too quickly. |
 | | Skeletons, young naked barely nubile women, young pubescent men, hallucinating scientists, deserted railway stations, brothels - all are the recurring images that appear in his works: dreamlike visions devoid of pretension, childhood dreams of touching naivety are set into scenes where De Chirico's influence is omnipresent. |
 | | Set within an intimist universe, set amid an architectural setting of pure classical lines, Delvaux organises his compositions with the precision of a studious, concentrated child and this within a silence heavy with things unspoken. |
