Arles, photography

I truly enjoyed visiting the photography exhibition 'Les Rencontres d'Arles' and was, it goes without saying, delighted to find two great Belgian names there, Harry Gruyaert and Michel Vanden Eeckhoudt.

Magnum photographers at the VUB

The Free University Brussels (VUB) has an agreement with the organization for Permanent Education (UPV). Those of us who no longer fit the description of a "student" are made to feel like one for a few hours.  We stepped through the University doors again to hear a lecture by professor J. Swinnen on Magnum and 4 Belgian Magnum photographers. The lecture was fascinating and it certainly gave the audience the incentive to learn more about photography and to admire and enjoy the work of  Martine Franck, Carl De Keyzer, Harry Gruyaert and John Vink
