René Gaffé was a Belgian collector of Cubist, Surrealist, Dadaist, African, and Oceanic art. Orphaned at an early age, he spent his youth at the Athénée Royal boarding school in Ostende where he studied ancient classics before choosing to become a journalist. During World War I, Gaffé was director of counterespionage in Amsterdam under the name of René Chambry, a pseudonym which he also used to publish several books on Serbia. After the war, he was recognized and decorated by France and Belgium. (anglais)
