Jef van Tuerenhout (Mechelen, May 23, 1926 - Wenduine, March 4, 2006) was a Belgian painter, sculptor, ceramist, engraver and designer of jewelery. In his career evolved his style bitter miserabilisme, Flemish expressionism to a neo-expressionism. Finally, this led to a slightly erotic, sensual style on the border surrealism and magic realism. He is sometimes called the last surrealist Belgium.
