4—7 SEPT. 25
RENDEZVOUS − Brussels Art Week is a new organisation celebrating the richness and variety of the contemporary Brussels art scene. This annual event takes place mid-September, and unites the city’s many contemporary art galleries to collectively celebrate the kick-off of the artistic season.
“ For us and for many, Brussels is a unique place. Conveniently central, discreetly humble - surrounded by big sisters such as London and Paris, but brimming with a creative energy that is ferocious. A metropolis where perfumed fur coats rustle against grimy leather rave jackets, where day meets night the way Magritte imagined it, where you can have an apéro with a gueuze, a pintje ou bien une coupe des bulles. Where young artists can still afford to live and create, whilst a network of immaculate galleries, renowned institutions and experimental artist-run spaces offer a plethora of impressive exhibitions and transdisciplinary events. A city defined by an enriching diversity, a charming chaos, an avant-garde that has been going steady for over 100 years, and where new trends inscribe themselves onto a canvas of strong art historical traditions. An inspiring melting pot for local and international artists, curators, gallerists, researchers, philosophers, collectors and art dealers.”
