among other things &#8211; the exhibition of the paintings of architect Jozef Schellekens.<br>With wall curtains, spotlights and specially designed tubular lamps, the town hall was given a new appearance \u2014 a testament to the creative energy that characterized Turnhout during that period.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The series of photos, taken by Jos\u00e9 Heerman, shows not only Jozef himself, but also his family, friends and colleagues. Together they form a unique snapshot of Turnhout modernism: a moment when art, architecture and community merged seamlessly. <\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Among those present were Mayor Richard Proost, pastor-artist Remi Lens, and architect Ren\u00e9 Van Steenbergen \u2014 all witnesses of a time when architecture extended beyond technique alone: it was a way of life.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Jozef&#8217;s children and son-in-law were also present:<br>Paul Schellekens, at that time still an architecture student at the Academy in Antwerp, and architect Carli Vanhout, married to Mia Schellekens, Jozef&#8217;s eldest daughter. Together with Carli&#8217;s brothers Leo and Andr\u00e9 Vanhout, active within the family construction company Frans Vanhout &amp; Zn (now Vanhout.pro within Groep Van Roey), they continued to build on a shared heritage of craftsmanship and vision. <\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The family relationships extend even beyond the professional.<br>When Jozef&#8217;s first wife died in 1942 at the birth of Lieve Schellekens, during the war years of the \u201cblack-out\u201d, the newborn girl was lovingly cared for by Ren\u00e9 Van Steenbergen and his wife. Lieve would later marry architect Karel Beuten from Berchem \u2014 a moving testament to the human warmth and friendship within this community. <\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Today, these images are not only a precious family heirloom, but also a visual document of the artistic vitality of Turnhout in the 1960s. <br>They tell of a generation that believed in progress, beauty and connection \u2014 values that still live on in the homes, archives and work of their descendants.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element
