¶ Numéro de la revue Sélection, Chronique de la vie artistique, du 15 janvier 1922, consacré à l'art du Congo et aux Arts premiers, avec notamment des articles de Blaise Cendrars et Guillaume Apollinaire. Le premier numéro de la revue belge Sélection, fondée par Paul Gustave Van Hecke et André de Ridder, fut publié en août 1920 ; G. de Smet était l'auteur de la couverture. La même année, Franz Hellens créait Le Disque vert. "Van Hecke écrivait peu lui-même. Sans doute avait-il pondu trop de copies quand il était journaliste. C'était par contre un animateur hors ligne qui connaissait tout le monde et recevait fastueusement. A sa vocation de poète à laquelle il croyait plus que ses amis écrivains qui le prenaient volontiers pour un amateur, il joignait le talent de découvreur d'hommes. "Co-directeur de Sélection et ami fidèle d'André de Ridder qui s'était assuré la collaboration de Georges Marlier et partageait avec lui la partie "critique d'art", Pégé [P. G. Van Hecke] s'occupait plus particulièrement de la partie littéraire de la revue." (Jean Milo, Vie et survie du Centaure, éditions Nationales d'art). Participèrent notamment à Sélection : Tristan Tzara, Robert Guiette, Paul Neuhuys, Franz Hellens, Pierre Courthion, Ribemont-Dessaignes, Pierre Morhange, Nino Frank, Marcel Lecomte, René Crevel, Paul van Ostayen, E.L.T. Mesens, André Salmon, Philippe Soupault.. Comme d'autres revues belges d'avant-garde, Sélection agrandit le champ de ses expérimentations vers un espace complémentaire : la galerie d'art.
