New book Élan vital - Levensdrang | Johan Creten

Published on the occasion of the Élan Vital exhibition, held at Galerie Transit(Mechelen, Belgium) from March 1 to May 31, 2026, a new publication dedicated to Johan Creten is now available.
Released to coincide with the artist’s ninth exhibition at the gallery, this catalogue traces nearly forty years of collaboration between Johan Creten and Galerie Transit founders Bert de Leenheer and Dirk Vanhecke.
Through archival materials, photographs, and rarely seen documents, the publication revisits the exhibitions and key moments that have shaped this longstanding relationship.
“This book is the trace of fleeting memories before they all disappear.”
