About Gilbert Decock
Born
1928
Died
2007
Nationality
Belgian
Gilbert Decock (1928–2007) was a Belgian painter and sculptor born in Knokke, Belgium, where he also died. An IdRef authority record notes that he studied at the Municipal Academy of Fine Arts in Bruges from 1946 to 1948 and also identifies activity as an engraver. Bibliographic records broaden the picture of his practice: the 1973 publication Varuna contained fourteen screenprinted plates, while Parcours 1990/1995 appeared as a print edition of 125. These records indicate a practice spanning painting, sculpture, printmaking, screenprinting, and artist-book or portfolio formats. Collectors may therefore encounter both unique objects and editioned graphic work under his name. The available source pack does not establish a museum-backed movement label, a consistent subject category, or a detailed chronology of stylistic development, so those points should not be inferred. Decock’s identity and life years are nevertheless represented consistently across Wikidata, VIAF, Getty ULAN, and IdRef authority records.
PaintingSculptureEngraving and printmakingScreenprinting
Common works and media
Documented forms include painting, sculpture, engraving, prints, and screenprinting. IdRef specifically records Varuna (1973), a book with fourteen screenprinted plates, and Parcours 1990/1995, a print issued in an edition of 125. No recurring subject matter is established by this source pack.
Market and appraisal context
Appraisal should begin by separating unique paintings and sculptures from prints, screenprints, and book or portfolio material. For graphic works, the documented edition is material: IdRef records Parcours 1990/1995 as an edition of 125, while Varuna is described as a 1973 book containing fourteen screenprinted plates. Work type, medium, edition information, date, and connection to a documented title are therefore useful comparison criteria. Appraisily lists auction-price records for Gilbert Decock, but the collected source pack does not expose individual lot descriptions, sale dates, realized prices, or auction-house attributions. Any valuation should consequently use verified, closely comparable public lots when those details are available and avoid inferring a price trend from the artist-level record count alone.
