Kiki van Eijk & Joost van Bleiswijk are celebrating the concept of collaboration, partnerships and individual authorship with the show Serendipity.

After the solo show, Kiki van Eijk, The New Harvest, curated by Spazio Nobile at Lempertz Auction house in Brussels in 2021, Kiki & Joost van Bleiswijk are inaugurating their first duo show Serendipity, a “world premiere” at Spazio Nobile Gallery with iconic and brand new unique and limited editions. Being in the right place at the right time, the acclaimed design couple inspires and works with each other. They use their “thinking hands” and artistic creative mindset by giving stage to the unexpected, which they always find “accidentally” within the process and in the complicity of shared curiosity and love.

The playful selection of furniture and objects, made with materials such as ceramics and metal, create a vibrant exhibition of colour and animated forms.

Concurrently, a selection of Silver Soft Pots, a limited edition series of ceramics by Kiki and made at Cor Unum, can also be seen at Spazio Nobile Studiolo.

Serendipity is on view though September 4, 2022.

Spazio Nobile is pleased to present The Lunisolar House by Taiwanese artist Pao Hui Kao in the Horizons section of Art Brussels. In this mesmerising piece, Pao Hui Kao invites us to reimagine the home as a delicate threshold, a shelter shaped by light, breath, silence and vulnerability, rather than a fortress. Using humble yet transcendent materials such as folded tracing paper and rice glue, the artist has created a space that is both architectural and meditative: a sanctuary without walls; a chapel without doctrine; a horizon where fragility is transformed into a new form of strength and beauty.

At Spazio Nobile’s 10th anniversary, philosopher and visual artist Benoît Maire and scenographer Marie Corbin turn the fleeting moment of a “crush” into a meditation on art, objects, and the gaze. A dialogue between applied and fine arts where nothing is fixed, and everything shimmers between observation and oblivion.

From March 18-25, 2026, Spazio Nobile presents Memories of a Garden, a colourful and captivating series of new work by Kiki van Eijk that captures the designer’s vivid imagination and the impact that nature and the landscape has on her practice.

On Saturday, March 14th, Belgian textile designer Vera Vermeersch will open her studio between 12-20h, offering visitors the opportunity to see her latest work, works-in progress, and have a unique glimpse into this prolific artist’s process and vision.
