Government grand silver medal at the Academy of Fine Arts 1971
Distinction for the Young Belgian Painting prize 1973
I am astounded by those who stand in front of Delcol's paintings and talk about vulgarity, pornography, sex-shop, meat market or guts. It is as false and idiotic to speak like that as to think at religious trinkets when looking at Mantegna, the art of war before the knights of Uccello, a bakery when contemplating Fornarina, vertebrae before Ingres's Grande odalisque
