Marianne Van Vyve (1943–1991) was a Belgian artist who lived and worked in Antwerp, her birthplace, where she also completed her studies at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts. Van Vyve never aligned herself with a specific artistic movement. Instead, she consistently developed her own visual language, often in opposition to the dominant trends of her time. Her work captures an inner, emotional landscape that emerged within the intimacy of her studio.

Recently, a monograph on her work was published by Mercatorfonds, and a selection of her monumental works is on view at L'Édition Populaire until 31.05.26.

L'Édition Populaire is a window gallery where artists can show work and build installations. The gallery can only be visited from the street, night and day. They wish to bring art into the street scene. The gallery is intended for the residents of the street, passersby and art-lovers.

L'Édition Populaire is a small scale, independent, non-profit project, but aims to reach a broad public through its newsletter and website. Note: L'Édition Populaire has two addresses in close proximity of each other. The second vitrine is located at Bleekhofstraat 22, 2018 Antwerpen.
