Modernism in Ghent, till June 30





I enjoyed this exhibition in Ghent so much that I hope that everyone who lives in or near Ghent or who is traveling to Belgium in June will take the opportunity to visit this major event. It is well worth your time and I can guarantee you that you will thoroughly enjoy.. if you love abstract art.

" BELGIAN ABSTRACT ART AND EUROPE (1912-1930)
In this first major retrospective exhibition of Belgian modernism around 1920 for more than twenty years, Belgium’s historical avant-garde will be illustrated through visual and applied art, architecture, typography, photography, films, music, literature and theatre. Belgian protagonists like Marthe Donas, Jozef Peeters, Jules Schmalzigaug, Victor Servranckx and Georges Vantongerloo will be juxtaposed with foreign contemporaries like László Moholy-Nagy, Vassily Kandinsky, Fernand Léger, Kurt Schwitters and Theo Van Doesburg". see http://www.mskgent.be/en/exhibitions/belgian-modernism/belgian-modernism

    Mijn favoriete stijlperiode! Theo van Doesburg was één van de grote mensen van de interbellum beweging 'De Stijl' in de twintiger jaren.

      Hij hangt er ook tussen, Peter, met een doek 'sfeer' genaamd, als ik me niet vergis.

    Had al gehoord dat het een interessante tentoonstelling was maar ik vrees dat ik er niet meer ga geraken. Vorig weekend heb ik voor caöropolis gekozen om te bezoeken, ook de moeite maar nu voorbij.

    Prettig weekend

    Hoop dat het beter is dan het fotofestival in Knokke. Ziet er heel interessant uit, je weet ons te lokken met je foto's!

    Hello,
    not really, I was supposed to have a teaching assignment in Belgium this month but it was cancelled again as the students from Belgium and Denmark are coming to Kuala Lumpur to attend the class. But it will happen in the future and I am looking forward to the trip to Belgium !
