Pierre Kemp
Description
One of the most fascinating individuals in twentieth-century Dutch poetry is Maastricht-born Pierre Kemp (1886-1967). In 1956, he received the Constantijn Huygens Prize, followed in 1958 by the PC Hooft Prize. Maastricht University Library manages a large part of his personal estate. The Pierre Kemp Collection contains various objects, such as books (his private library), letters, manuscripts, radio fragments, graphic works, a Liber Amicorum (a handwritten friendship book including graphic works by renowned artists), vinyl records, a red egg decorated with a poem in gold ink, a desk, and a record collection. Part of this collection is housed in the library by the Pierre Kemp Foundation, which aims to bring Kemp's literary and graphic heritage to the attention of a wide audience. As part of the national Connected Digital Heritage program, the University Library aims to present the Pierre Kemp Collection to as broad an audience as possible in a connected, open, and enriched way.
