7 DAYS IN BELGIUMHomepage

The week in Belgium from 10 to 16 March

Exhibitions, outdoor workshops, and record shop live sessions in Antwerp, Ghent, and Brussels. See you there!

Opening: It’s all real at Hopstreet gallery

Sunday, 16 March, 14-19h00 Brussels

The exhibition title “It’s all real” is inspired by a drawing by Fabrice Souvereyns, an artist who challenges us to see the rapidly changing world in a new way. As technology accelerates, there is a growing need to return to basics – to embrace simple materials, craftsmanship, and the beauty of minimal means.. The works of Jonathan Callan, Dominique De Beir, Marco De Sanctis, Toufan Hosseiny, Sébastien Pauwels, and Fabrice Souvereyns all resonate with that notion.

Workshop: Hymn to the Fallen Trees at Citadelpark

Saturday, 15 March, 14-17h00 Ghent

Poet and performer Lisa Koo Gautama, musician Ali Choupani and dancer Gaia op de Weegh invite you to this special outdoor workshop around the theme of “Trees & Resilience”, focusing on how our natural environment can help us deal with rapid changes and distressing events (sounds timely). Through poetry, music and dance participants connect with nature and themselves. No prior experience needed!

Music: Window Sessions at Warrecords

14 and 15 March, 16-19h00 Antwerp

Antwerp record shop Warrecords, specialised in electronic music while cultivating vinyl culture, is a space where people can explore music, connect with others, and simply have fun. With spring around the corner, a new season of the store’s beloved live “Window sessions” awaits. First up: Scar and homegrown Proserpio on Friday, and Meowcore and DJ Towa on Saturday.

Opening weekend: Matching Seats at MAD

14 and 15 March Brussels

“Matching Seats” at MAD Brussels showcases Galila Barzilaï Hollander’s extraordinary chair collection. A passionate art patron and self-proclaimed “artoholic,” Galila has spent 20 years curating an eclectic mix of collectible design chairs – some humorous, others provocative. From a chair made of Barbie dolls to bullet-riddled glass and a tribute to “The Birth of Venus”, each design challenges the perceptions of art and function.
