Focus on Brussels

Brussels Gallery Weekend (BGW) celebrates 15 years this season, with a host of events beginning on Thursday, September 8th and running through September 11th.

For the fifth edition of Collectible Design Fair, Spazio Nobile presents a vibrant installation dedicated to the ‘fire arts’, showcasing works in ceramic and glass, as well as wood and paper by emerging and established artists.

The Collectible fair is back to being an in-person event, with doors opening to the public on Friday, May 20th. Known for its sharp eye and collaborative approach with designers, galleries, editors and institutions, Collectible 2022 should bring lots of creative energy to Brussels this weekend.

After a 2-year hiatus, Art Brussels is back with a dynamic program that includes 156 international and national galleries featuring work by established and emerging artists.

TLmag spoke to designer, artist, and researcher Pao Hui Kao who presented at Another Way to Draw with Spazio Nobile Gallery at BOZAR Brussels.

Forty-six art galleries open their doors this weekend to surprise visitors with the fourteenth edition of the Brussels Gallery Weekend.

Galerie Templon presented ‘Living Inside’, a solo exhibition by Japanese artist Chiharu Shiota. Featuring a group of new works, both intimate and delicate, the exhibition explored the notion of home and the fragmentation of our daily reality.

The Jewish Museum of Belgium presents ‘Ellis Island’, a group show exploring themes of exile and migration, and reflecting on spaces of dispersion, confinement, and wandering.

From May 29th until June 5th, visitors have the opportunity to embark on a delicious gastronomic journey with Brussels I Love You.

Following a two-year redevelopment process, Studiokhachatryan has announced the opening of their new design studio in Molenbeek, Brussels. The new space will showcase the practice of architectural designer Noro Khachatryan.

Spazio Nobile presents ‘Threads of Nature’, a group exhibition exploring and reflecting upon interactions between humans and the natural environment. Arranged together, the works provide a means of reconnection to the natural world; a visual and tactile reforming of the elements.

Koenraad Dedobbeleer’s 2019 show “Kunststoff, Gallery of Material Culture” at Wiels brought together 40 ‘living’ artworks to reflect upon Western culture, art history, and mythology. TLmag spoke with the Brussels-based artist about the exhibition and his practice.
