Jan Theuninck (born 7 June 1954),
is a Belgian painter and poet. Although born in Zonnebeke, Belgium,and a native
speaker of Dutch, he also writes in French and English. His painting is
abstract, falling somewhere between minimalism and monochrome expressionism.
His work in both media is guided by his social and political convictions,
dealing with topics such as colonialism old and new, mass and society, and
pacifism.
